last time was the last time

don't forget to say goodbye
they say like that's
all it takes
take a last look round,
they say like that's
all you have to do
but every morning says goodbye
and every night says we'll miss you
goodbye can so easily pass you by
goodbye can so easily pass..

so don't say farewell, i'll write, i'll call
just don't say goodbye at all
because if we lived every moment like it was our last
if we paid attention instead of doing it fast
it'd never hurt to say goodbye
goodbye would never pass us by

because last time was the last time
I'll stand up there
last time was the last time I'll see you there
last time was the last time,
i missed it, i missed it,
but if i'd been living like it was my last
paying attention instead of doing it fast
it wouldn't hurt to say goodbye

take a break from thinking and just look around
take a break from thinking and just listen
maybe if we stopped finding and realized we've found
maybe if we stopped talking and just listened

because last time was the last time
I'll stand up there
last time was the last time I'll see you there
last time was the last time,
I missed it, I missed it,
but if I'd been living like it was my last
paying attention instead of doing it fast
it wouldn't hurt to say goodbye.

maybe if we only said hi more often
it wouldn't hurt to say goodbye
