I Can't Find the Words to Say Goodbye - David Gates

Can't say I don't love her

Still I can't pretend

That my heart is torn just knowing that

I'm losing my best friend

If it's easier said than done

Then someone tell me why

Though I tried

I can't find the words to say goodbye

I could tell her that I'm sorry

And hope she'll understand

She will have to do with someone else

All that we had planned

I'd rather her, hear the truth

Than hurt her with a lie

So I tried

But I can't find the words to say goodbye

Now I know, I have to go

There's no other way

But goodbye is not what I

Can't bring myself to say

If I told her, see you later

Then I might be wrong

'Cause this voice inside is driving me

To find where I belong

And I know I must leave her now

But every time I try

Don't know why

But I can't find the words to say goodbye

Don't know why

I can't find the words to say goodbye
