TODAY I BOUGHT MYSELF
A BRAND NEW PENCIL
I PICKED UP
A YELLOW LEGAL PAD
IT'S GONNA TAKE
AT LEAST
THAT MANY PAGES
TO WRITE YOU OF
THE BAD TIMES
THAT I'VE HAD
JUST SO THERE'S
NO MISTAKE ABOUT ME
LEAVIN'
GOODBYE'LL BE
THE FIRST WORD
THAT I'LL WRITE
WRITING THIS IS GONNA
BE SO EASY
REMEMBERING
ALL THE LONELY NIGHTS
I'VE CRIED
I WISH THAT I
COULD HIDE
AND WATCH YOU
READ THIS
OH I'D LIKE TO SEE
THE LOOK THAT'S ON
YOUR FACE
AT FIRST YOU'LL SMILE
AND THINK THAT
I'M ONLY JOKIN'
BUT THE SMILE
WILL FADE AND A TEAR
WILL TAKE ITS PLACE
WHEN YOU READ
THE PART
WHERE I NO LONGER
LOVE YOU
YOU'LL TRY YOUR BEST
TO THINK BETWEEN
THE LINES
BUT I'M GONNA MAKE IT
PLAIN ENOUGH
TO SHOW YOU
IF I HAVE TO WRITE
IT DOWN
A THOUSAND TIMES
4 BAR
BREAK
BUT EVERY WORD
I WRITE
COMES OUT
I LOVE YOU
I'D LIKE TO SAY IT'S OVER
BUT NO MATTER
HOW I TRY
EVERY WORD I WRITE
COMES OUT
I LOVE YOU
YES I'VE LOVED YOU
MUCH TOO LONG
TO SAY GOODBYE
YES I'VE LOVED YOU
MUCH TOO LONG
TO SAY GOODBYE
