Goodbye Lyrics – Sabrina Carpenter
Goodbye Lyrics
[Verse 1], Broke my heart on saturday, Guess overnight your feelings changed, And i have cried so much i almost fainted, (Uh-huh, uh-huh).
To show you just how much it hurts, I wish i had a gun or words, If somethin’ got lost in communication, (Uh-huh, uh-huh).
[Pre-Chorus] , Well, sayonara, adiós, You’re not bilingual, but you should know.
[Chorus] , Goodbye means that you’re losing me for life, Can’t call it love, then call it quits, Can’t shoot me down, then shoot the shit, Did you forget that it was you who said goodbye, So you don’t get to be the one who cries, Can’t have your cake and eat it too, By walking out, that means you choose goodbye.
[Verse 2], The feeling so specific, Wanna punch you every other minute, oh, You used to love my ass,, Now, baby, you won’t see it anymore, (Uh-huh, uh-huh).
We’ll just give it three weeks, buddy, Gonna wake up from your coma, honey, ooh, And that’s when you’ll be holding hokey flowers,, Standing at my door, (Uh-huh, uh-huh).
[Pre-Chorus] , But i’ll say, “arrivederci, au revoir”, Forgive my french, but, fuck you, ta-ta.
[Chorus] , Goodbye means that you’re losing me for life, Can’t call it love, then call it quits, Can’t shoot me down, then shoot the shit, Did you forget that it was you who said goodbye, (Did you forget that it was you who said goodbye).
So you don’t get to be the one who cries, Can’t have your cake and eat it too, By walking out, that means you choose goodbye.
[Bridge] , Sayonara, adiós, On the flip side, cheerio, Por siempre te amo, wait, no, Shit, when did you get here, Go put on some clothes.
[Chorus] , Goodbye means that you’re losing me for life, Can’t call it love, then call it quits, Can’t shoot me down, then shoot the shit, Did you forget that it was you who said goodbye, (Did you forget that it was you who said goodbye).
So you don’t get to be the one who cries, Can’t have your cake and eat it too, By walking out, that means you choose goodbye.
[Outro] , Goodbye! , Get home safe.
