No Good With Goodbyes

I just need one more cup of coffee
just one more minute
to let this thing sink in
And it’s not that
I didn’t know you were leavin’
no, I wished you well
I sent you off with all my love
 
but see the problem
now that you’re gone is
my heart’s a little achey
I was never good with goodbyes
 
and there’s just one thing more
that I’d like to say to you
that is that I’d like to thank you
for the gifts that you gave me
and it’s not that
I didn’t know that you changed me
no, I felt sharp edges smoothing
water over stone
 
but see the problem
now that you’re gone is
my heart’s a little achey
I was never good with goodbyes, no
 
so I’ll hold on to
the memory of warmth in you hands
the love in your eyes
the strength in your words
see it’s not that
I didn’t know I loved you
I just don’t think I knew that
I’d feel it more since you’re gone
 
and see the problem
now that you’re gone is
my heart will go on aching
I was never good with goodbyes
I was never good with goodbyes
I was no good with goodbyes
but you know I’ll see you in awhile
