We walked on golden fields   and watched them wither at our heels   it's time we let their mothers cry   strange how that well ran dry   like lillies hang their heads to die   we'll kiss this all goodbye      I watched you fall apart   I watched you from afar   I watched and just felt numb      If I could ask you just one thing   How you gonna say goodbye?      We lie on barren fields   and shed a tear as pastors kneel   I pressed my face against the sky   we shouldn't ponder why   there's nothing left for us inside   when I've already said goodbye      If I could ask you just one thing   how you gonna say goodbye?   After I've given you everything   how you gonna say goodbye      How you gonna say      GOODBYE!   GOODBYE!   GOODBYE!
