The Long Goodbye
Navigating Heartbreak: The Long Goodbye Unveiled
Lyrics
This is the hardest thing that I ever say
This is the most difficult thing for me to say.
I have to tell you that we're at an end
I must inform you that our relationship is over.
And I don't know why I'm cryin'
I am experiencing sadness, though the reason is unclear.
'Cause it's been my own decision
Despite the emotional pain, the decision to end things is mine.
But there's no more lying to you and to myself
No more deception to you or to myself is possible.
If you want to go
If you choose to leave,
I won't
I won't prevent you.
I don't hold you back
I won't hinder your departure.
Since the day I know
Since the day I became aware,
And I'm sure we're on the wrong track
I am convinced our relationship is troubled.
If you want to go
If you decide to leave,
I won't
I won't stand in your way.
I don't hold you back
I won't impede your departure.
Since the day I know
Since the day I realized,
And I'm sure we won't get it back
I am certain we cannot recover what is lost.
Tell me where oh where do we go from here
Enquiry about the direction to take from this point.
My heart almost stops
My heart nearly stops due to the emotional intensity.
And I'm full of fear
Filled with fear about the future.
It is my turn now to tell you the truth
It is my responsibility now to reveal the truth.
You said that the facing me as ???
Referring to a past conversation about facing each other, but the meaning is unclear.
And I don't know why I'm lying
Feeling unsure why I am not truthful.
Once so sure of my decision
Once confident in my decision, now filled with doubt.
Now I'm just crying on your shoulder again
Expressing sadness by crying on your shoulder.
If you want to go
If you wish to leave,
I won't
I won't stop you.
I don't hold you back
I won't hinder your departure.
Since the day I know
Since the day I understood,
And I'm sure we're on the wrong track
I am certain our path is troubled.
If you want to go
If you decide to leave,
I won't
I won't stand in your way.
I don't hold you back
I won't impede your departure.
Since the day I know
Since the day I realized,
And I'm sure we won't get it back
I am certain we cannot regain what is lost.
Tell me where oh where do we go from here
Asking about the future direction of the relationship.
My heart almost stops
My heart is filled with intense emotion, almost stopping.
And I'm full of fear
Overwhelmed by fear about what lies ahead.
