I Have to Say Goodbye
Regine Velasquez Lyrics

Night after night we stay together
Sharing moments that spell forever
Day after day our love gets stronger
Growing every minute as we get closer
If we ever have to say goodbye
And go our own separate ways
i wouldn't know how to get by on my own
After all the love and passion you have shown
I'll never say goodbye
No matter how they try
To show me love
That last if we're prisoners
Caught in the past
Don't let your tears run dry
No need for you to cry
I promise I will stay
And with you all the way
Our friends will soon forget
That you and I once met
As long as deep inside
I know it's love not pride
And I will never say
Ever say goodbye
I'll never say goodbye
There are no reasons why
Our souls are so entwined
There is us, not you and I
And time will soon regret
Regretting we once met
Because we'll show them all
With love we can walk tall
And we will never say
Ever say goodbye
I'll never say goodbye

THE REALITY👍
Kaya naman kakaiba sya sa lahat ng mga singers maski sa mga generation ngayon, kasi kahit sa low register palang nya ay nakakatayo na ng balahibo at unang stanza palang nung kanta ay connected na agad ang puso mo sa kwento nya. Sobrang galing lang talaga. Iba ang feelings pag si Regine na ang kumanta. I don’t mind the strain or garalgal, ang importante ramdam ko yung kwento ng kanta na punong-puno ng emosyon.

A beautiful song, beautifully sung by Queen Regine.
