Lyrics
¡Bye bye! ¡Baby bye bye!
Expression of farewell or goodbye, repeating for emphasis.
That was all she wrote
Indicates the end of communication or relationship; it's all that she wrote.
I got home late on a Saturday night
Narrator arriving home late on a Saturday night.
And I knew right away something wasn't right
Narrator senses something is wrong immediately.
I knew she was gone
Realization that the partner is no longer present.
She took all I had but, left a hole in my heart
Partner took everything, leaving an emotional void.
Should've known it would go bad, right from the start
Regret for not foreseeing the relationship's downfall from the beginning.
What did I do wrong?
Reflection on personal mistakes and confusion about the breakup.
I can't understand why she would leave me this way
Questioning why the partner chose to leave in such a manner.
With nothing to say
Partner left without providing any closure or explanation.
Then I found the note on the door
Discovery of a farewell note on the door.
It said good-bye and she don't want me no more
Confirmation of the breakup and the partner's decision to end the relationship.
¡Bye bye! ¡Baby bye bye!
Repeating the farewell in a catchy, rhythmic way for emphasis.
She said in her letter
Quoting what the partner wrote in the letter.
And that was all she wrote
Reiterating that the note was the entirety of the partner's communication.
Guess this is goodbye, guess this is forever
Acceptance of the breakup as a permanent goodbye.
And that was all she wrote
Emphasizing that the note was the final communication.
I called on the phone, but she wasn't there
Attempted communication through a phone call, but the partner is unreachable.
Should've know all along that she just didn't care
Realization that the partner never cared, acknowledging the signs that were ignored.
Why did she have to go?
Questioning the reasons behind the partner's departure.
Now I look at her picture and I wonder why
Reflecting on a picture of the partner and pondering the motivation behind leaving.
She left me this way...-Why did she say goodbye?
Expressing confusion and sorrow about the sudden goodbye.
I guess I'll never know
Resignation to never understanding the partner's motives.
I can't understand why she would leave me this way
Repeating the inability to comprehend the breakup.
With nothing to say
Reiteration of the partner's departure without explanation.
I remember the note on the door
Recollection of the note left on the door.
It said good-bye and she don't want me no more
Confirmation that the partner no longer wants to be part of the narrator's life.
¡Bye bye! ¡Baby bye bye!
Repeating the farewell in a rhythmic manner for emphasis.
She said in her letter
Quoting what the partner wrote in the letter.
And that was all she wrote
Reiterating that the note was the entirety of the partner's communication.
Guess this is goodbye, guess this is forever
Acceptance of the breakup as a permanent goodbye.
And that was all she wrote
Emphasizing that the note was the final communication.
¡Bye bye!
Final repetition of the farewell, possibly indicating lingering emotions.
(She said in her letter)
Reiterating what the partner wrote in the letter.
¡Bye bye!
Repeating the farewell in a rhythmic manner for emphasis.
(And That was all she wrote)
Quoting what the partner wrote in the letter.
So bad, that she wrote
Expressing the intensity of the emotional impact of the partner's written farewell.
