And as far as we to know, be.

But this This ain’t ain’t good bye; this is just (Gm7)where love goes
when words aren’t warm e nough
to keep a way the cold.
Oh, no, this ain’t good bye; it’s not (Gm7)where our sto ry ends.
But I know you can’t be mine,

Oh, no, this ain’t good bye.

that no one else could go; see.

And it was n’t meant to know, be.
