Goodbye
Farewell Symphony: Navigating Love's Bittersweet Departure
Lyrics
Never found it easier
Expressing difficulty in letting go
To let you go
Acknowledging the ease of letting the person go
Ooh but now I know
Realization that life unfolds in a certain way
It's the way life goes
Acceptance of the natural course of life
Another day
Another day passing
There's no delay
Emphasizing no delay in the process
You left the throne
Metaphorically referring to the person as having left a position of importance
How wisdoms gone
Reflecting on the absence of wisdom
Now we're saying there's no cure
Expressing a belief that there is no cure for the situation
Is this how you treat a friend? (Is this how?)
Questioning the treatment of friendship
Is this how you treat a love? (Is this how?)
Questioning the treatment of love
Remember to be prepared
Advising to be prepared for potential loss
If you lose all you got (Lose)
Highlighting the possibility of losing everything
(Is this goodbye?)
Pondering if the moment is a farewell
Is this goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye?
Repetition, emphasizing the question of goodbye
(Is this goodbye?)
-Is this goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye?
-(Tell me baby, is this goodbye?)
Repetition, reinforcing the question of goodbye
Is this goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye?
-(Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, is this goodbye bye baby)
-Is this goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye? (Bye)
-I think I lost my mind
Feeling a sense of losing sanity
When I thought this was right
Reflecting on a past belief that turned out to be wrong
I Still, I still I got my life
Despite challenges, affirming possession of one's life
I made up my mind
Making a firm decision
(Ooh) Can you step back just a little bit
Describing a situation with uncertainty and inevitability
(Ooh) Got a feeling this is really really it
-(Ooh) I know we never really really wanted this
-(Ooh) But baby this is what it is
-Is this how you treat a friend? (Tell me baby yeah)
Reiteration of questioning treatment in relationships and advising preparation for loss
Is this how you treat a love? (I wanna know know know know)
-Remember to be prepared
-If you lose all you got (if you lose)
-(So tell me is it goodbye?)
Repetition, questioning if it's a final goodbye
Is this goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye?
-(Is it goodbye bye bye, bay baby, is this the end of you and me?)
-Is this goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye?
-(Goodbye)
Repetition, expressing uncertainty about the farewell
Is this goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye?
-(Oh is this goodbye?)
-Is this goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye?
-Goodbye, bye
Final repetition, bidding farewell
Is this goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye?
-Is this goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye?
-Can you step back just a little bit
Reiteration of a situation with uncertainty and inevitability
Got a feeling this is really really it
-I know we never really really wanted this
-But baby this is what it is
Acceptance of the current situation
