The Way You Said Goodbye (Acoustic Version) - Jack Savoretti

Like I said I would I picked you up at eight We drank and danced 'til late Life was just a silly game we played You and I Lovers in the night Teardrops never found our eyes Two stars fallin' from the sky Lost in time Years they come and go The hardest part to take Is they'll never come around again? Yours and mine A love we used to know Why must it be? Hearts are made to bleed Fools always believe that love will never die How can it be? I wore my heart upon my sleeve I never thought you'd leave 'til that night And the way you said goodbye Like I said I would I've gotten over you I did what I had to do I won't ever let you make me blue That's just not true Who am I kiddin' when it comes to you? I never know what else to do I've always been in love with you Lost in time Years they come and go The hardest part to take Is they'll never come around again Yours and mine A love we used to know Why must it be? Hearts are made to bleed Fools always believe that love will never die How can it be? I wore my heart upon my sleeve I never thought you'd leave 'til that night And the way you said goodbye And the way you said goodbye Lost in time Years they come and go The hardest part to take Is they'll never come around again Yours and mine A love we used to know Why must it be? Hearts are made to bleed Fools always believe that love will never die How can it be? I wore my heart upon my sleeve I never thought you'd leave 'til that night And the way you said goodbye

He's the deflated balloon Wrapped round your gate Cut price to clear and past His sell by date He'll be the fool Running through the church yard Screaming out It's not too late And when he does I know that you'll wait He's the drunk man With bad breath coming on too strong But he's the beauty queen That strings your heart along And he'll answer Every question In your new age magazine wrong But I know you love him strong So I'm leaving For there's nothing to believe in I'm just grieving for a love I never knew Please don't go Misreading me I'm not saying You've been misleading me Just not needing me The way that I need you He's the elephant In the room that never speaks But you dream about him Every two weeks And I wouldn't know his name But you call it in your sleep Oh, I know You love him deep So run back to him Like you should I guess I always knew That you would For he's captured your heart In a way I never could So go on And love him good Oh, I'm leaving For there's nothing to believe in I'm just grieving for a love I never knew You're the book I can't stop reading I'm the stray cat You've been feeding But the tides They are receding now It's true Please don't go Misreading me I'm not saying You've been misleading me Just not needing me The way that I need you Just not needing me The way that I need you

Let you get away from me You'll never be back inside my arms So what can I say I'm broken in places you said I didn't have Why was it so hard to see To see it was love until you left And now you moved on I feel alone with a stranger in my bed If I never said goodbye to you If I never broke your heart in two I wouldn't hate myself the way that I do You wouldn't have fallen for someone new If I never let you slip away If I never made so many mistakes I wouldn't have to fall asleep through the day Just so I can see your face Would you even talk to me I'm sure that we'll meet in this small town Would you look away Pretending to stare at you phone keep on looking down A million things to say But there's no words to change the past And sorry won't work Even if it's the first time I've ever said it now If I never said goodbye to you If I never broke your heart in two I wouldn't hate myself the way that I do You wouldn't have fallen for someone new If I never let you slip away If I never made so many mistakes I wouldn't have to fall asleep through the day Just so I can see your face I'm not the same king of person you met I wouldn't ever have hurt you again I know that I did you wrong I know you're already gone But I'm not the same king of person you met I wouldn't ever have hurt you again I know that I did you wrong But if I never said goodbye to you If I never broke your heart in two I wouldn't hate myself the way that I do You wouldn't have fallen for someone new If I never let you slip away If I never made so many mistakes I wouldn't have to fall asleep through the day Just so I can see your face

He is sensible and so incredible And all my single friends are jealous He says everything I need to hear And it's like I couldn't ask for anything better He opens up my door and I get into his car And he says, "You look beautiful tonight" And I feel perfectly fine But I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain And it's 2:00 a.m. and I'm cursing your name So in love that you act insane And that's the way I loved you Breakin' down and coming undone It's a roller coaster kinda rush And I never knew I could feel that much And that's the way I loved you He respects my space and never makes me wait And he calls exactly when he says he will He's close to my mother, talks business with my father He's charming and endearing and I'm comfortable But I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain And it's 2:00 a.m. and I'm cursing your name So in love that you act insane And that's the way I loved you Breakin' down and coming undone It's a roller coaster kinda rush And I never knew I could feel that much And that's the way I loved you He can't see the smile I'm faking And my heart's not breaking 'Cause I'm not feeling anything at all And you were wild and crazy Just so frustrating, intoxicating, complicated Got away by some mistake and now I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain It's 2:00 a.m. and I'm cursing your name So in love that I acted insane And that's the way I loved you Breaking down and coming undone It's a roller coaster kinda rush And I never knew I could feel that much And that's the way I loved you, whoa, whoa, oh, oh Oh, and that's the way I loved you Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Never knew I could feel that much That's the way I loved you

فوسط زحمة وناس كتير وطريق أنا ماشي فيه عكس السير وسط الطموح والأمل والتمني فاضلي خطوة توصلني فوسط حاجات ومكيفات بحاول أنسى كل اللي فات في وسط صدري ضلعي مكسور ومن خلاله قلبي شايف نور أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع فوسط الليل وأنا بعيد عن البشر شفت نور يشبه نور القمر بس القمر مسيره يفارق ويسيبني تاني مع الوحدة أحارب فوسط قصة حب يعني وهمية كان لازم أصدق اصل الوحدة قوية مش كل المشاعر حقيقية أنا شفت نور معرفتش اغمض عنيا أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع

One, two, three Why are you hanging on so tight To the rope that I'm hanging from? Off this island, this was an escape plan (this was an escape plan) Carefully timed it, so let me go And dive into the waves below Who tends the orchards? Who fixes up the gables? Emotional torture from the head of your high table Who fetches the water from the rocky mountain spring? And walk back down again to feel your words and their sharp sting And I'm getting fucking tired The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ended, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour You make me do too much labour Apologies from my tongue, and never yours Busy lapping from flowing cup and stabbing with your fork I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man), and weaponise The false incompetence, it's dominance under a guise If we had a daughter, I'd watch and could not save her The emotional torture, from the head of your high table She'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate So now I've gotta run, so I can undo this mistake At least I've gotta try The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ends, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid (The capillaries in my eyes are bursting) Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant (If our love died, would that be the worst thing?) Just an appendage, live to attend him (For somebody I thought was my saviour) So that he never lifts a finger (You sure make me do a whole lot of labour) 24-7, baby machine (The calloused skin on my hands is crackin') So he can live out his picket fence dreams (If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?) It's not an act of love if you make her (And the silence haunts our bed chamber) You make me do too much labour
