Lyrics: I used to love to say your name
It'll never sound the same
Foolish pride got in my way
Now you'll never feel what I meant to say
I wasted every chance you gave

Why do I feel, I'm goin' in circles
All I can do, is wonder why
I should have known, I'd be the hurt one
I've always been bad at goodbyes
Has there ever been a good goodbye?

Foolish lovers just like me
Even lose their memory
For they learn to make believe
Missin' you is pain without a cure
I'd give my life for a minute in yours

Why do I feel, I'm goin' in circles
All I can do, is wonder why
I should have known, I'd be the hurt one
I've always been bad at goodbyes
Has there ever been a good goodbye?

Night after night
I remember days with you
Why tell me why
I still keep cryin' over you
Oh there ain't no way around it
What we once had is through

Why do I feel, I'm goin' in circles
All I can do, is wonder why
I should have known, I'd be the hurt one
'Cause there's never been a good goodbye
There's never been a good goodbye - Oh Whoa

Ain't no good goodbye
