Of all the things I believe in I just want to get it over with Tears form behind my eyes But I do not cry Counting the days that past me by I've been searching deep down in my soul Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old Looks like I'm starting all over again The last three years were just pretend and I say Goodbye to you Goodbye to everything I thought I knew You were the one I love The one thing that I tried to hold on to I still get lost in your eyes And it seems like I can't live a day without you Closing my eyes till you chase my thoughts away To a place where I am blinded by the light but it's not right Goodbye to you Goodbye to everything I thought I knew You were the one I love The one thing that I tried to hold on to Oh yeah It hurts to want everything & nothing at the same time I want what's yours and I want what's mine I want you but I'm not giving in this time Goodbye to you Goodbye to everything I thought I knew You were the one I loved The one thing that I tried to hold on to The one thing that I tried to hold on to Goodbye to you Goodbye to everything I thought I knew You were the one I love The one thing that I tried to hold on to And when the stars fall I will lie awake You're my shooting star
