How We Say Goodbye

[Verse 1]
I read a book and ripped it up
I'm not sure why you all should read it
About a guy who lost it all
And won it back in just a weekend
He worked it out to give it all
Back to the people who would need it
He ended up all by himself
Him and his cat, no way to feed it

[Chorus]
The words defy the best we buy
To find the truth, the questions lie

[Verse 2]
I heard a song, I closed my ears
I couldn't stand the sound of lonely
It just got loud with me too proud
To plug my ears again, if only

[Chorus]
The words defy the best we buy
To find the truth, the questions lie
The one reply I testify
To answer you, I'm on your side

[Post-Chorus]
That's how we say goodbye
That's how we say goodbye
That's how we say goodbye
That's how we say goodbye

[Chorus]
The words defy the best we buy
To find the truth, the questions lie
The one reply I testify
To answer you, I'm on your side
The words we defy the best we buy
(That's how we say goodbye)
To find the truth, the questions lie
(That's how we say goodbye)
The one reply I testify
(That's how we say goodbye)
To answer you, I'm on your side
(That's how we say goodbye)

[Post-Chorus]
That's how we say goodbye
That's how we say goodbye
That's how we say goodbye
That's how we say goodbye
