learnt to love goodbyes Songtext
von Cat Burns

I′ve read the stories, seen the films, I know it all
Better to lose a love than never love at all
But growing up, the hurt was all I ever saw

You say you're different, you won′t leave me, I've heard it before
Everyone's different ′til I show every one of my flaws
I don′t expect you to pick me up every time I fall

People coming and going
But they never stay
There's always a reason
The cab′s five minutes away
No need to act like you won't do the same

I′ve learnt to love goodbyes
I'm so used to people leaving
I don′t cry
I've learnt to love goodbyes
So if you're going
You don′t need to tell me why
I′ve learnt to love goodbyes


You're picture-perfect on paper
Just what I′m looking for
Someone I'd show to my sister
And know that she′d adore
But I'm scared of commitment
My head and heart′s at war
(My head and heart's at war, my head and heart)

People coming and going
But they never stay
There's always a reason
The cab′s five minutes away
No need to act like you won′t do the same

I've learnt to love goodbyes
I′m so used to people leaving
I don't cry
I′ve learnt to love goodbyes
So if you're going
You don′t need to tell me why
I've learnt to love goodbyes

I've learnt to love goodbyes
