I never said goodbye Maybe I never even said hello Why did you have to go Were you feeling sad I wish I'd called to say it's not so bad Though I know that's all very well for me to say I would have anyway to try and make you stay At least another day I never said farewell I didn't know that it was on your mind I should've seen the signs I never realized You'd come all the way down to the wires There are so many things I could have said Before the summer set but chances came and went I won't forget And now it's clear as day I don't know what it was Standing in the way I don't know what it was You could have asked me You could have asked me I never said goodbye I thought I saw you on the avenue Now I realize it wasn't you I just got the news
