Well I can't say how and I can't say why
I can't just say goodbye
I look at you and I'm tongue-tied
but I can't say how and I can't say why
I can't say where and I can't say when
I can't say I'll see you again
but you're everywhere I've ever been
and I can't say where, I can't say when
Cause all we had is all but gone
and words don't make it right
And all we are is all but wrong
and all the wrong words rhyme
Can't say how and I can't say why
I've said it a thousand times
You're all the reasons I live and die
But I can't say how, I can't say why
Cause all we had is all but gone
and words don't make it right
All we are is all but wrong
and all the wrong words rhyme
I can't say when, I can't say who
But I can say he'll be nothing like you
And he'll love me the way that I loved you
but I can't say when, I can't say who
Cause all we had is all but gone
and words don't make it right
All we are is all but wrong
and all the wrong words rhyme
Can't say how, can't say why
I should just say goodbye
and God only knows I tried
I can't say how, I can't say why
