Well I can't say how and I can't say why
I can just say,"Goodbye"
I look at you and I'm tongue-tied
But I can't say how, I can't say why
Can't say where and I can't say when
I can't say I'll see you again
But you're everywhere I've ever been
And I can't say where, I can't say when
‘Cause all we had is all but gone
And words don't make it right
All we are is all but wrong
And all the wrong words rhyme
Can't say how and I can't say why
I've said it a thousand times
You're all the reasons I live and die
But I can't say how, I can't say why
'Cause all we had is all but gone
And words don't make it right
All we are is all but wrong
And all the wrong words rhyme
Can't say when, I can't say who
But I can say he'll be nothing like you
And he'll love me the way that I loved you
But I can't say when, I can't say who
'Cause all we've had is all but gone
And words don't make it right
All we are is all but wrong
And all the wrong words rhyme
Can't say how, I can't say why
I should just say, “Goodbye"
But God only know I've tried
And I can't say how, I can't say why
No, I can't say how, I can't say why
I just can't say how, I can’t say why
