I Can't Find The Words To Say Goodbye

(Billy Dean/David Gates)

I can't say I don't love her

Still I can't pretend

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 try

I can't find the words to say goodbye

I can tell her that I'm sorry

And hope she'll understand

And she'll 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 try

I can't find the words to say goodbye

I know I have to go

There's no other way

But goodbye is not what I

Can bring myself to say

I tell her "see you later"

but then I might be wrong

This voice inside is driving me

To find where I belong

I know I must leave her now

Everytime I try

I can't find the words to say goodbye

Don't know why

I can't find the words to say goodbye
