Say Goodbye
Farewell Echoes: Ryland James Sings of Love's Bittersweet Adieu
Lyrics
Hoping that you're calling
Hoping for a call, anticipating connection
'Cause I've been missing you
Expressing longing and missing the person
Wondering if you're with him
Questioning if the person is currently with someone else
Thinking about me too
Reflecting on the possibility that the person is also thinking about the speaker
But if it's too late to talk
Considering the timing for communication
If he's there by your side
Acknowledging the presence of another person in the listener's life
You can tell me to stop
Offering to stop if the listener wishes
And I'll say goodbye
Expressing readiness to say goodbye if needed
Holding onto nothing
Admitting a lack of substantial connection
Tell me, do you still care?
Inquiring about the listener's feelings
I'm restless for that one chance
Feeling restless and eager for an opportunity to prove devotion
To show you, that I'm still here
Desiring to demonstrate the enduring presence and commitment
But if it's too late to talk
Reiterating the consideration of timing for communication
If he's there by your side
Acknowledging the presence of another person once again
You can tell me to stop
Reiterating the offer to stop if the listener desires
And I'll say goodbye
Expressing continued readiness to say goodbye
Goodbye to all the memories we share (all the memories we shared)
Saying goodbye to shared memories
Goodbye to everything that we were (everything that we were)
Bidding farewell to the past relationship
Baby, I don't want to wait forever
Expressing unwillingness to wait indefinitely
I don't know what else to do
Conveying a sense of helplessness and confusion
But say goodbye to you
Emphasizing the inevitable act of saying goodbye
But if it's too late to talk
Reiterating the consideration of timing for communication
If he's there by your side
Acknowledging the presence of another person once again
Well, you can tell me to stop
Reiterating the offer to stop if the listener desires
And I'll say goodbye
Expressing continued readiness to say goodbye
Oh, if it's too late to talk
Emphasizing the potential lateness in addressing the situation
If he's there by your side
Acknowledging the presence of another person once again
You can tell me to stop and I'll say goodbye
Reiterating the offer to stop if the listener desires
And I'll say goodbye
Concluding with a final expression of readiness to say goodbye
