There are moments in the brain When you won't know what they mean
Till you'll travel and drown You'll laugh and you'll cry
Till you finally know why There's a lesson in every goodbye
One day you will see it's true Every vision comes skating to you
The truth looks you in the eye And sounds like a lullaby
As it tells you with a sigh There's a lesson in every goodbye
No one can say there's only one way But you've got an answer for today
Hold it real close, you're getting so close Right now is the most you'll never know
Hold it real close, you're getting so close Right now is the most you'll never know
Hold it real close, you're getting so close Right now is the most you'll never know
So take the lesson well Between heaven and what we call hell
There's a place where you can fly Or a space where you can try
Where love's the law, we abide And the lesson's in every goodbye
In every goodbye In every goodbye
In every goodbye In every goodbye
