Say Goodbye – Chris Brown

Look, we gotta talk. Dang, I know, I know, but it’s—it’s just some things I gotta get off my chest. Alright.

Listen.

Baby, come here, sit down. Let’s talk.
I got a lot to say. So, I guess I’ll start by
Saying that I love you,
But you know this thing ain’t been
No walk in the park for us.

I swear it’ll only take a minute.
You’ll understand when I finish.
And I don’t wanna see you cry,
But I don’t wanna be the one to tell you a lie.

So, how do you let it go
When you—you just don’t know
What’s on the other side of the door,
When you’re walking out?
Talk about it.

Everything I tried to remember to say just went out my head.
So I’m ‘a do the best I can to get you to understand
‘Cause I know

There’s never a right time to say goodbye,
But I gotta make the first move
‘Cause if I don’t you’re gonna start hating me,
‘Cause I really don’t feel the way I once felt about you.
Girl, it’s not you. It’s me.
I kinda gotta figure out what I need.

There’s never a right time to say goodbye,
But we know
That we gotta go
Our separate ways.
And I know it’s hard,
But I gotta do it,
And it’s killing me
‘Cause there’s never a right time,
Right time to say goodbye.

Girl, I know your heart is breaking,
And a thousand times I found myself asking,
“Why? Why? Why am I taking so long to say this?”

But trust me, girl, I never
Meant to crush your world, and I never
Thought I would see the day we grew apart.

And I wanna know
How do you let it go
When you—you just don’t know
What’s on the other side of the door,
When you’re walking out?
Talk about it.

Girl, I hope you understand
What I’m tryna say.
We just can’t go on
Pretending that we get along.
Girl, how you’re not gonna see it?

There’s never a right time to say goodbye,
But I gotta make the first move
‘Cause if I don’t you’re gonna start hating me,
‘Cause I really don’t feel the way I once felt about you.
Girl, it’s not you. It’s me.
I kinda gotta figure out what I need.

There’s never a right time to say goodbye,
But we know
That we gotta go
Our separate ways.
And I know it’s hard,
But I gotta do it,
And it’s killing me
‘Cause there’s never a right time,
Right time to say goodbye.

Listen to your heart,
Girl, you know,
We should be apart,
Baby, I—I just can’t do it.
I—I just can’t do it.

Listen to your heart,
Girl, you know,
We should be apart,
Baby, I—I just can’t do it,
And sometimes it makes me wanna cry.

Do you hear me crying?
There’s never a right time.

There’s never a right time to say goodbye,
But I gotta make the first move
‘Cause if I don’t you’re gonna start hating me
You’re gonna start hating me, baby.
‘Cause I really don’t feel the way I once felt about you.
No more.
Girl, it’s not you. It’s me.
I kinda gotta figure out what I need
About you and me.

There’s never a right time to say goodbye,
Oh, no, it ain’t.
But we know,
That we gotta go
Our separate ways.
And I know it’s hard,
But I gotta do it,
And it’s killing me
‘Cause there’s never a right time,
Right time to say goodbye.

There’s never a right time to say goodbye,
But I gotta make the first move
‘Cause if I don’t, you’re gonna start hating me,
‘Cause I really don’t feel the way I once felt about you.
Girl, it’s not you. It’s me.
I kinda gotta figure out what I need.

There’s never a right time to say goodbye,
But we know,
That we gotta go
Our separate ways.
And I know it’s hard,
But I gotta do it,
And it’s killing me
‘Cause there’s never a right time,
Right time to say, right time, right time, right time.
