Why do most dudes choose to
Leave the girl that's been down from day one?
I tried to love you, really love you
Gave my all
It's been a year since you told me goodbye
It hurts but 
I'm finally letting you go
Took that much time for me to recognize
That breaking was building my heart
Thank you for saying goodbye, making me cry
Leaving me here all alone in the night
You saved my life, that beautiful night
You said goodbye
Thank you for saying goodbye, found someone new
Yes I'm so grateful, 
I owe that to you
Told me to tell you he's thankful too
For saying goodbye
Would I have a man 
I love could just do me like this
But you really only set me up for a day such as this
You say rebound, 
I say touchdown
No more games
It's been a year since you told me goodbye
And it hurts but 
I'm finally letting you go
Took that much time for me to recognize
That breaking was building my heart
Thank you for saying goodbye, making me cry
Leaving me here all alone in the night
You saved my life, that beautiful night
You said goodbye
Thank you for saying goodbye, found someone new
Yes, I'm so grateful, 
I owe that to you
Told me to tell you he's thankful too
For saying goodbye
Wouldn't have found the love of my life
If you hadn't told me goodbye
And now I realize that there is such a thing
As a goodbye
Thank you for saying goodbye, making me cry
Leaving me here all alone in the night
You saved my life, that beautiful night
You said goodbye
Thank you for saying goodbye, found someone new
Yes, I'm so grateful, 
I owe that to you
Told me to tell you he's thankful too
For saying goodbye
Leaving me here all alone in the night
Said goodbye
Thank you for saying goodbye, found someone new
Yes, I'm so grateful, 
I owe that to you
He's thankful too for saying goodbye
