good in goodbye

i look back on the last 4 years of my life and realize that i really am grateful for everything that has happened, for the heartbreaks, the pain, the disappointment, the tears, the mistakes, and the faith that came from it all. the faith that the lord has a plan for me. "i thank god i didn't get what i thought that i deserved"....why you ask? because he knew i deserved something better. i'm not going to sit here and act like i still don't think about you sometimes, because i do. i'll hear a song or a movie that reminds me of you, and sometimes the thought of you will randomly come to my mind. it's not because i'm bitter or angry or because i'm still in love with you it's simply because there will always be a piece of me that really cares about you, that hopes you're happy and doing good,  and that you accomplish all of those goals and dreams that boy i once knew had. but thank you for everything you did for me, for being the first boy i ever loved, for helping me grow up, and for breaking my heart. because it taught me how to be strong, and helped me realize what i really deserve. i'm grateful i've finally seen the reason things happened the way they did, and i'm glad i've seen the "good in goodbye"



I heard you laughing in a crowd outside a restaurant we used to go to
I caught a glimpse that stopped me in my tracks
It took me back
You looked happy with that little girl on your shoulders, happy
I know where she got those crystal eyes of blue
Time’s been sweet to you


As bad as it was, as bad as it hurt
I thank God I didn’t get what I thought that I deserved
Sometimes life leads you down a different road
When you’re holding on to someone that you gotta let go
Someday you’ll see the reason why
Sometimes, yeah sometimes, there’s good in goodbye

I don’t regret it
The time we had together
I won’t forget it
But we both ended up where we belong
I guess goodbye made us strong
And yeah I’m happy
I found somebody too who makes me happy
And I knew one day I’ll see you on the street
And it’d be bittersweet


As bad as it was, as bad as it hurt
I thank God I didn’t get what I thought that I deserved
Sometimes life leads you down a different road
When you’re holding on to someone that you gotta let go
Someday you’ll see the reason why
Sometimes, yeah sometimes, there’s good in goodbye
Yeah, yeah


As bad as it was, as bad as it hurt
I thank God I didn’t get what I thought that I deserved
Sometimes life leads you down a different road
When you’re holding on to someone that you got to let go
Someday you’ll see the reason why
Yeah someday you’ll see the reason why
There’s good in goodbye, yeah
There’s good in goodbye
