Lyrics
Didn't wanna say goodbye,
Reluctance to bid farewell
Didn't wanna watch you leave
Reluctance to witness the departure
So soon, oh no
Expressing surprise or sorrow at the untimely departure
But now you live inside of me,
Emphasizing the lasting impact of the departed on the speaker
In my heart will live the memories
The speaker cherishes the memories the departed left behind
That you left with me
Highlighting the emotional legacy left by the departed
Didn't have the chance to say
Expressing regret for not having the opportunity to convey certain sentiments
That I wish that you would stay,
Expressing a desire for the departed to stay
Didn't have the chance to say
Reiteration of the missed chance to express feelings
Goodbye
Acknowledging the departure with a farewell
So ill miss you
Expressing the speaker's sense of loss
Dear friend of mine, and ill miss
Addressing the departed as a dear friend
You, your such a big part of our
Emphasizing the significant role of the departed in the lives of others
Lives, and with thank the lord,
Expressing gratitude for the time spent together
And we celebrate your life
Celebrating the life of the departed instead of focusing on the goodbye
So it's not goodbye,
Rejecting the notion of a permanent farewell
We'll see you when its time
Confidently asserting a future reunion when the time is right
Didn't wanna say goodbye,
Similar sentiment to the earlier lines, reiterating the reluctance to say goodbye
Didn't wanna watch you leave
Reiteration of the unwillingness to witness the departure
So soon, oh no
Repeating the surprise or sorrow at the untimely departure
But now you live inside of me,
Reaffirmation of the lasting impact of the departed on the speaker
In my heart will live the momories
Reiteration of cherishing the memories left by the departed
That you left with me
Reemphasis on the emotional legacy left by the departed
Didn't have the chance to say
Reiteration of regret for not expressing certain sentiments
That I wish that you would stay,
Reiteration of the desire for the departed to stay
Didn't have the chance to say
Reiteration of the missed chance to express feelings
Goodbye
Reaffirmation of acknowledging the departure with a farewell
So ill miss you
Reiterating the sense of loss
Dear friend of mine, and ill miss
Reiteration of addressing the departed as a dear friend
You, your such a big part of our
Reiteration of emphasizing the significant role of the departed
Lives, and with thank the lord,
Reiteration of expressing gratitude for the time spent together
And we celebrate your life
Reiteration of celebrating the life of the departed
So it's not goodbye,
Rejection of the idea of a permanent goodbye
We'll see you when its time
Confident assertion of a future reunion when the time is right
So it's not goodbye,
Reiteration of the rejection of a permanent goodbye
We'll see you when its time
Final confident assertion of a future reunion
Oh
Closing with emphasis on the eventual reunion
