Wave Goodbye

Words get tangled on your tongue

And you stumble on your feet

When you miss somebody

And everywhere you think you see them

Walking down the street

When you miss somebody

When you miss somebody

You tell yourself a hundred thousand times

Nobody ever lives forever

So you give it one more try

To wave goodbye, wave goodbye

Every hurtful thing you ever said

Is ringing in your ear

When you miss somebody

And everything of beauty that you see

Only brings a tear

When you miss somebody

When you miss somebody

You tell yourself everything will be alright

Try to stand up strong and brave

When all you want to do is lay down and die

How long Ive waited for an answer or a sign

Lonely and weary from

The troubled task of trying

To wave goodbye

So now you start to recognize

That every single path you see

Leads to a tear in your eye

So wave goodbye, wave goodbye
