I Love You, Goodbye

(álbum: Celine Dion - 1992)

Wish I could be the one
The one who could give you love
The kind of love you really need
Wish I could say to you
That I'll always stay with you
But, baby, that's not me

You need someone willing to give their heart and soul to you
Promise you forever, baby, that's something I can't do

Oh, I could say that I'll be all you need
But that would be a lie
I know I'd only hurt you
I know I'd only make you cry
I'm not the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye

I hope someday you can
Find some way to understand
I'm only doing this for you
I don't really wanna go,
But deep in my heart I know
This is the kindest thing to do

You'll find someone who'll be the one that I could never be
Who'll give you something better than the love you'll find with me

Oh, I could say that I'll be all you need
But that would be a crime
I know I'd only hurt you
I know I'd only make you cry
I'm not the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye

Leaving someone when you love someone
Is the hardest thing to do
When you love someone as much as I love you

Oh, I don't wanna leave you
Baby, it tears me up inside
But I'll never be the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye

Baby, it's never gonna work out
I love you, goodbye
