(spoken)
This is goodbye

It's my happy ending
Now it's time to say goodnight
We can stop pretending
Tell the spotlight man turn off my light

Cause the show is done now
And it's time to leave the stage
Yeah, the good guy won now
And the band has no more songs to play
It's a happy ending so I'll say

Goodbye
Goodbye to all the make believe
Goodbye
There's no more magic up my sleeve

There's nothing left to act up here
I'll take my bow and disappear
No questions left for answering
There's only one word left to sing
Goodbye

It's a happy ending
To the greatest show on earth
Now the curtain's descending
And I hope you got your money's worth
Gonna stop the show now
'Cause I wanna leave on top
So get up and go now
'Cause there's nothing left inside my head
Everything that's left to say's been said

But goodbye
Goodbye to all the song and dance
Goodbye
Off-stage I stand a better chance

The show is through, the parts been played
No standing in the wings afraid
No violins or phony tears
The word thats music to my ears is goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

I'm not afraid of stopping
This end could be my start
I wanna live a life
And not just play a part

I'll walk into the sunset
I'll sail across the sea
The final word
The last you'll hear of me
Of me...
Is goodbye
Goodbye to every night alone
Goodbye
Goodbye to lives I don't own

I'm tired of living on the stage
A life that's only on the page
Empty lies are in the past
I've tried before but here's the last goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
