Saying Goodbye Songtext
von Deborah Cox

Why do most dudes choose to leave the
Girl that′s been down from day one?
I tried to love you, really love you
Gave my all, yeah

It's been a year since you told me goodbye
It hurts, but I′m finally letting you go
Took that much time for me to recognize
That breaking was building my heart

Thank you for saying goodbye
Making me cry
Leaving me here all alone in the night
You saved my life
That beautiful night you said goodbye
Thank you for saying goodbye
Found someone new
Yes, I'm so grateful, I owe it to you
Told me to tell you
He's thankful, too, for saying goodbye


I wonder how the man I love could just do me like this
But you really only set me up for a date such as this
You say "rebound", I say "touchdown"
No more games, no

It′s been a year since you told me goodbye
And it hurts, but I′m finally letting you go
Took that much time for me to recognize
That breaking was building my heart

Thank you for saying goodbye
Making me cry
Leaving me here all alone in the night
You saved my life
That beautiful night you said goodbye
Thank you for saying goodbye
Found someone new
Yes, I'm so grateful, I owe it to you
Told me to tell you
He′s thankful, too, for saying goodbye

I wouldn't have found the love of my life
If you hadn′t told me goodbye
And now I realize that there is such a thing as a goodbye


Whoa, no
Whoa, no
Whoa, no
Whoa, no

Thank you for saying goodbye
Making me cry
Leaving me here all alone in the night
You saved my life
That beautiful night you said goodbye
Thank you for saying goodbye
Found someone new
Yes, I'm so grateful, I owe it to you
Told me to tell you
He′s thankful, too, for saying goodbye

Leaving me here all alone in the night
Bye-bye, baby
Bye-bye, baby, yeah
Thank you for saying goodbye
Found someone new
Yes, I'm so grateful, I owe it to you, yeah
He's thankful, too, for saying goodbye
Oh, bye-bye
Oh, bye-bye
