[Verse 1]
See the sleep that rests upon
The quiet street we're standing on
Is it time to go away?
Try again some other day?

[Chorus]
'Cause these are the words we use
To say goodbye
These are the words you use
To say goodbye

[Verse 2]
Bones crack, curtains drawn
On my back and she is gone
Somewhere else, I do not know
Time will tell and I will go

[Chorus]
These are the words we use
To say goodbye
These are the words we use
To say goodbye

[Verse 3]
I will wait and take a turn
Sort it out, let it burn
And empty out an empty drawer
In my pockets, there's nothing more
[Chorus]
These are the words you use
To say goodbye
These are the words we use
To say goodbye
