Chorus)
Ever since the day that we said goodbye
Our days seem brighter than yesterday

I see you all the time but we don't say hi
And we cry behind the smiles that we try to fake


(Verse 1)
Tell me oh
Why'd you have to leave

I don't know what I've done wrong
Baby oh
Why couldn't you see

I was clueless all along

(Trans 1)

Now I see you living life happy again,
Smiling in a better place
I shouldn't have to care but now and then

Tears roll down my face

(Chorus)

Ever since the day that we said goodbye
Our days seem brighter than yesterday
I see you all the time but we don't say hi

And we cry behind the smiles that we try to fake

The sun can shine

And wind can blow
But that won't dry the tears that you left with me
Girls like you

Yeah they come and go
I'm just another promise that you failed to keep


(Verse 2)
Why oh why
Why didn't you try

To reason with what I've done
I oh I
Never meant to lie

Turned back around and now you're gone

(Trans 2)

Nice to see you looking out after me
Nice to know that you still care
Sorry, but that don't mean a thing

Cause you're no longer there

(Chorus)

Ever since the day that we said goodbye
Our days seem brighter than yesterday
I see you all the time but we don't say hi

And we cry behind the smiles that we try to fake

The sun can shine

And wind can blow
But that won't dry the tears that you left with me
Girls like you

Yeah they come and go
I'm just another promise that you failed to keep
