[Verse 1]
When I gave up on you I took my time
Waiting for reasons to change my mind
But there were none
[Pre-Chorus]
My fever won, so it was clear to me
That we should be done
Even though it was breaking my heart
You were perfect at the start
So right, that’s why
[Chorus]
Goodbye, so hard to say
And that’s the reason
I haven’t known that he walked away
Away
[Verse 2]
When I gave up on you, I gave up slowly
Waiting for reasons to keep us going
But there were none
[Pre-Chorus]
My fever won, so it was clear to me
That we should be done
Even though it was breaking my heart
You were perfect at the start
So right and that’s why
[Chorus]
Goodbye, so hard to say
And that’s the reason
I haven’t known that he walked away
Away
I tried hard as I could
Sometimes people try harder than they should
Than they should
[Bridge]
We were one in a million, but now I see
One on a million wasn't good enough for me
We were one in a million and you know it’s true
One on a million wasn't good enough for you
[Verse 3]
When I gave up on you I took my time
Waiting for reasons to change my mind
But there were none
But there were none
[Chorus]
Goodbye, so hard to say
And that’s the reason
I haven’t known that he walked away
Away
I tried hard as I could
Sometimes people try harder than they should
Than they should
