Lyrics for Goodbyes and Good Intentions

I used to come here to kill the ache To see your face, I still wish I could Memento is all that is left And all the words I meant I still wish I could Tell you how you unlocked a new world in me Remind how deep in slumber I used to be Still all the promises we failed to keep Like you, every oath gone in the wind Of everything ever to fell upon me Now the worst are these little things All the intentions, plans left on table Songs unsung, goodbyes never told Goodbyes never told Goodbyes never told Goodbyes never told You used to say silly things to soothe me Like the world will be here tomorrow And we will have our part in it How the good eventually outweighs the bad And how happiness will triumph It was a promise that kept my woe at bay And I believed you, at least I wanted to You gave me everything, and I just took it Without hesitation, without blinkin' an eye But I never got to thank you So here goes, thank you The way you unlocked a new world in me Remind how deep in slumber I used to be Still all the promises we failed to keep Like you, every oath gone in the wind Of everything ever to fell upon me The worst are these little things All the intentions, plans left on table Songs unsung, goodbyes never told Goodbyes never told Goodbyes never told Goodbyes never told
