[Verse] Old names pace the hallway in their borrowed coats Almost-loves, unopened letters, boats that never float I hear them at the doorway saying, “Stay awhile” But I have miles to walk before I learn my own smile [Chorus] Goodbye, goodbye, you can’t choose my way I bless what we were, then I turn the page All the hands I couldn’t hold, I set them free The road is mine, and I belong to me [Breakdown] I’m not the room where every ghost remains I can grieve the almost, without wearing chains [Final Chorus] Goodbye, goodbye, I can face the day I keep what was kind; let the rest drift away No borrowed heart will tell me who to be The road is mine, and I belong to me
