When you wake up
And find me gone tomorrow,
Don't think I meant to hurt you
I just did what we knew I had to do

Oh, and all the time we knew
The time was never right for us,
Time to leave this love behind
I could never leave you,
Baby, if I see you cry

I'll say good-bye for the two of us
Tonight while you're asleep
I'll kiss you softly one last time
And say good-bye like I know we must
There's just no other way
And I couldn't bear to see your heart break
So, I'll wait 'til you're asleep to say good-bye

Please realize
How hard it is to do this
I'm trying to make it through this,
Say good-bye just as gently as I can

Please try and understand
This time's just not the time for us
We knew I couldn't stay
But that don't make it easier to leave you
So while I can find the strength

I'll say good-bye for the two of us
Tonight while you're asleep
I'll kiss you softly one last time
And say good-bye

Before your arms embrace me,
Before your kisses take me,
Before your eyes can make me stay

I'll say good-bye for the two of us
Tonight while you're asleep
I'll kiss you softly one last time
And say good-bye like I know we must

I'll wait 'til you're asleep
To say good-bye for the two of us
Tonight while you're asleep
I'll kiss you softly one last time
And say good-bye like I know we must
There's just no other way
And I couldn't bear to see your heart break
So, I'll wait 'til you're asleep to say good-bye

When you wake up
And find me gone tomorrow,
Don't think I meant to hurt you

Good-bye
