words get tangled on your tongue
and u stumble on your feet when u miss somebody
and everywhere u think u see them
walking down the street when u miss somebody
when u miss somebody
u tell yourself a hundred thousand times
nobody ever lives forever, so u give it one more try
to wave goodbye
every hurtful thing u ever said
is ringing in your ears when u miss somebody
and everything of beauty
that u see only brings a tear when u miss somebody
when u miss somebody
u tell yourself everything will be alright
try to stand up strong and brave
when all u want to do
is lay down and die
how long i've waited for an answer or a sign
lonely and weary from this troubled task of trying
to wave goodbye
so now u start to recognise that every single path u see leads a tear in your eye
so wave goodbye, wave goodbye
