Why Does It Take So Long To Say Goodbye

(album: Royal Tea - 2020)

Tired of running
I've seen these times before
Desperation
Our candle burns no more
Everything we know
Takes us so far away
Trace your steps back
Don't let 'em guide your way

When I leave
Oh, I leave for good
No coming back
Like you said I would
You crossed the line
Why does it take so long to say goodbye?
Every time

I'm just a castaway
Cast out into the sea
Another rainy night
Tears from the endless fights
Oh, I carried you
Carried you on my own
So take the love you've had
And pretend you always know

When I leave
Oh, I leave for good
No coming back
Like you said I would
You crossed the line
Why does it take so long to say goodbye?
Every time
Say goodbye
Every time

When I leave
Oh, I leave for good
No coming back
Like you said I would
You've crossed the line
Why does it take so long to say goodbye?
Every time
Say goodbye
Every time, yeah...
