[Verse 1]
When you lose something
It’s all that you want back
You’re waiting patiently
But it don’t work like that

When you lose someone
The first thing that goes through your head
Is if you run fast enough
You just might catch up
But it don’t work like that

[Chorus]
You just got to watch it fly
Stand there on the side lines
Go on and swallow your pride
You know its going to be alright
Wish it well and close your eyes
With a kiss goodbye

[Verse 2]
Well the hardest part
Ya it hurts so bad
Is when she spreads her wings
But it’d be a selfish thing
To try and hold her back
But it don’t work like that
[Chorus]
You just got to watch it fly
Stand there on the side lines
Go on and swallow your pride
You know its going to be alright
Wish it well and close your eyes
With a kiss goodbye

When you lose something
It’s all that you want back

[Chorus]
You just got to watch it fly
Stand there on the side lines
Go on and swallow your pride
You know its going to be alright
Wish it well and close your eyes
With a kiss goodbye

[Outro]
Like a kiss goodbye
