Goodbye
Farewell to Temptation: The Veronicas' Emotional Goodbye
Lyrics
Love in the dark, breakin' two hearts, that's what you sad
Expressing the pain of a love that ended in darkness, causing heartbreak.
Wanna know who you are, not going too far with you
Desiring to understand the true identity of the person but not willing to commit too deeply.
Secrets we keep, no one can speak about us, babe
Acknowledging shared secrets and a sense of privacy in the relationship.
Pullin' me in, I never win, do you?
Feeling constantly pulled into a losing situation with the person in question.
I'm still drunk at the bar, watchin' your every move
Being intoxicated at a bar and observing the person's actions closely.
Imagining how good you taste, now we're standin' face-to-face
Imagining the taste of the person and now standing face-to-face with them.
You should get in your car, baby, just drive away
Suggesting the person should leave to avoid further complications.
I don't wanna hear you say all the things I wish you'd say
Expressing a desire not to hear words that are wished for but unlikely to be said.
'Cause my love is waiting back at home
Affirming a commitment to a love waiting at home.
And I know and I know you and me, we could start a fire
Believing that the current relationship could ignite passion.
Get too close, you'll burn my self-control
Warning about the potential to lose self-control if too close to the other person.
And I don't wanna get to the point that I just can't fight it
Expressing reluctance to reach a point of no return in the attraction.
So goodbye to you
Bidding farewell to the person and acknowledging the necessity of saying goodbye.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, good

-Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, good
-I gotta say goodbye to you
-Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, good
-Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, good

-At the end of the night, why can't this all just be easy?
Questioning why things can't be simple at the end of the night.
That look in your eyes, takin' me down, down, down
Describing a captivating look in the person's eyes bringing emotional turmoil.
I'm so conflicted, tryna resist but I need it
Feeling conflicted and unable to resist the attraction, indicating addiction.
Guess I'm addicted, I just keep runnin' right back
Continuously returning to the person despite the internal struggle.
I'm still drunk at the bar, watchin' your every move
Repetition of earlier sentiments, emphasizing the desire for the person to leave.
Imagining how good you taste, now we're standin' face-to-face
