All your life, you've waited
For love to come and stay
And now that I have found you, you must not slip away

I know it's hard believing
The words you've heard
But, darling, you must trust them just once more


'Cause, baby, goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean we'll never be together again

If you wake up and I'm not there, I won't be long away
'Cause the things you do, my goodbye girl, will bring me back to you


I know you've been taken
Afraid to hurt again
You fight the love you feel for me instead of giving in


But I can't wait forever
Helping you to see

That I was meant for you and you for me

'Cause, baby, goodbye doesn't mean forever

Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean we'll never be together again
Though we may be so far apart, you still have my heart
So forget your past, my goodbye girl, 'cause now you're home at last


Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever

Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you, goodbye doesn't mean forever
