The hardest goodbye

Is the one you don't say.

The words that get caught

In your throat.

The hardest goodbye

Is the one you don't say.

Your words of farewell

Came too late.

The hardest goodbye

Is the one you don't say.

To the person you never

Said hello to.

The hardest goodbye

Is the one you don't say.

You're too proud to admit

That you care.

The hardest goodbye

Is the one you don't say.

But to those you love most

Words aren't needed.
