Looking back now, I see your face in the city lights
It's hard to admit but
I really thought you'd be dancing with my ghost for the rest of your life
Once sweet, now I'm bitter
Thought I was the love of your life
Just like you're mine
Like you were mine
But you're not the one for me
Putting me back to sleep
When the thunder is loud
I know you're not coming back for me
When you hear this song
Even though you did the last time
I want you to know
That I love you
But this is goodbye
I know it's been a year now
You keep coming back into my life
But I've realized that it's time to let go
I'm doing it for me this time
I'll never love somebody like I loved you
And that's alright
I whisper your name every night
But you're not the one for me
Putting me back to sleep
When the thunder is loud
I know you're not coming back for me
When you hear this song
Even though you did the last time
I want you to know
That I love you
But this is goodbye
I used to think that I would see you at my shows
I'd let go to run
But you always knew that I won't
And I don't need your formalities
You treated me like the punchline to your long-held jokes
This chapter's closing and I want you to know
That you're not the one for me
Putting me back to sleep
When the thunder is loud
I know you're not coming back for me
When you hear this song
Even though you did the last time
I want you to know
That I love you
But this is goodbye
