I count the ways I let you down On my fingers and toes but I'm running out Clever words can't help me now I gripped you tight but you're slipping out
And I remember your eyes were so bright When I first met you, so in love that night And now I'm kissing your tears goodnight And I can't take it, you're even perfect when you cry Beautiful goodbye, bye, bye, bye, bye It's dripping from your eyes, your beautiful goodbye It's dripping from your eyes, oh yeah
When did the rain become a storm When did the clouds begin to fall Yeah we got knocked off course by a natural force And we'll, we'll be swimming when it's gone
And I remember your eyes were so bright When I first met you, so in love that night And now I'm kissing your tears goodnight And I can't take it, you're even perfect when you cry Beautiful goodbye, bye, bye It's dripping from your eyes, your beautiful goodbye It's dripping from your eyes, oh yeah
All the pain you try to hide Shows through your mascara lines as they stream down from your eyes And let them go, let them fly Holding them back won't turn back time Believe me, I've tried
Your eyes were so bright I remember your eyes were so bright I remember your eyes were so bright When I first met you, how in love were we that night And now I'm kissing your tears goodnight And I can't take it, you're even perfect when you cry Beautiful goodbye, bye-bye, bye-bye It's dripping from your eyes, your beautiful goodbye It's dripping from your eyes, yeah
