How you say goodbye

1 song Mp3 320 Kbps

She came in cryin’ on a cold November night

Stars above, not a promise in sight

Mama held her close, said, “Baby don’t cry,

Life won’t ask you, it just passes by.”

'Cause the day you arrive, the clock starts to spin

You don’t get to choose how the game begins

Ain’t nothin’ fair, no matter how you try

The only truth’s the day you live and the day you die

She learned young how the world can bite

Watched her father lose his fight to the night

Lovers come and go like summer storms

She built her fire, learned to keep it warm

Yeah, the day you arrive, the story’s already told

You search for meaning, chasing fools' gold

Justice don’t knock, don’t even say goodbye

All you know for sure is you’re born and you’ll die

So the day you arrive, take a breath and see

There’s no promise carved in destiny

You laugh, you cry, you reach, you lie

But all that matters is how you say goodbye

Mmm…

Just the day you arrive...

And the day you leave…
