[Verse 1]
I was on the high line, but you didn't notice
Staring at the west side, fall into the ocean
Anyway, I've been close to getting off the island
I think I'm gonna try it one day like this

[Chorus 1]
I'ma jump into the water (Water) and free my soul
Yell a little louder (Louder), and take control, yeah
You read the signs, but I write them (Write them)
I know your eyes, and I like them
It's alright, you can say goodnight
But we don't have to say goodbye (Goodbye)
We don't have to say goodbye (Goodbye)

[Verse 2]
Even whеn the waves came crashing in thе buildings
Even when the golden bells stopped all the singing
I could never leave this (Leave this)
I never had a reason (Had a reason)
This is where my place is now, I can feel it

[Chorus 1]
I'ma jump into the water (Water) and free my soul
Yell a little louder (Louder), and take control, yeah
You read the signs, but I write them (Write them)
I know your eyes, and I like them
It's alright, you can say goodnight
But we don't have to say goodbye (Goodbye)
We don't have to say goodbye (Goodbye)
(No, no, no, no, no)
[Chorus 2]
Take me to a place you know (Place you know)
Take me to a place you love (Place you love)
And the leaves'll change, put their colors on
And we'll go home and pull the covers on
And we'll (We'll) say (Say) goodnight (Goodnight)
But we don't have to say goodbye (Goodbye)
No, we don't have to say goodbye (Goodbye)
(No, no, no, no, no)

[Outro]
We don't have to say goodbye
(We don't have to say goodbye)
We don't have to say goodbye
No, we don't have to say goodbye
