How To Say Goodbye

Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Even just for a moment

Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it

You're standing two feet from me
I can feel it in your aura
We want to stay forever
But that time is taken from us
Once so broad in stature
Your face is drawn in
Once so broad in stature
Your body's paper thin
Your body's paper thin

Take a breath and hold it, even just for a moment
Take a breath and hold it, for a moment so pure
Take a breath and hold it, show me how to say goodbye
Show me how to say goodbye
Show me how to say goodbye

Take a breath and hold it, even just for a moment
Take a breath and hold it, for a moment so pure
Take a breath and hold it, show me how to say goodbye
Show me how to say goodbye
Show me how to say goodbye

Memories race in circles, as I leave you in the rain
The air calms and thunders, a deafening silence pulls through
I think of each word just past, did I say them true enough?
I'd hate to think you'd know that I worry of your time
For you taught me how to be present, and how to stem the tide
Showed me where to ride the waves
But I can't help but wonder
Could this time be the last?
You built this life for me
And I couldn't say goodbye

Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it
Take a breath and hold it

Take a breath and hold it, even just for a moment
Take a breath and hold it, for a moment so pure
Take a breath and hold it, show me how to say goodbye
Show me how to say goodbye
Show me how to say goodbye

Take a breath and hold it, even just for a moment
Take a breath and hold it, for a moment so pure
Take a breath and hold it, show me how to say goodbye
Show me how to say goodbye
I couldn't say goodbye

Take a breath and hold it
