We never had the words Only silence in the space between us I feel me drifting Lost in space Tell me what you’re thinking I could never read Between the lines [pre chorus] Severing The strings that tie us This well worn rope That held me and tied me down [chorus] It’s a long good bye (goodbye) A long good bye (goodbye) Of all we’ve ever known I’m unraveling You’re retreating (retreating) We’re splintering into A million pieces [sung fading out and ethereal] Into a long good bye [verse] We built this home A pretty garden in bloom thought we tended it Never seeing the dark Moving through the cracks Till I had no room Pretty on the outside But fading on the inside [pre chorus] Severing The strings that tie us This well worn rope That held me and tied me down [chorus] It’s a long good bye (goodbye) A long good bye (goodbye) Of all we’ve ever known I’m unraveling You’re retreating (retreating) We’re splintering into A million pieces [sung fading out and ethereal] Into a long good bye [ instrumental break] [bridge] And all I know Is I could never see All the places where the cracks used to be And all I know Is I could never see How my heart was falling apart for me [quiet and acapella] It’s a long good bye A long good bye It’s a long good bye [music picks up] [pre chorus] Severing The strings that tie us This well worn rope That held me and tied me down [chorus] It’s a long good bye (goodbye) A long good bye (goodbye) Of all we’ve ever known I’m unraveling You’re retreating (retreating) We’re splintering into A million pieces [sung fading out and ethereal] Into a long good bye A long good bye [sung quietly whispered and sad] Goodbye Goodbye [fade out]
