I Didn't Know I Was Saying Goodbye

Little did I know when I was gazing at you
That it would prove to be my very last view
Little did I know when you were caught in my gaze
That after that there would be no more displays
Now my lows are staying low, my highs no longer high
You would've seen me shake, you would've seen me cry
I didn't know I was saying goodbye

The note we ended on just dogs could hear
Could be that's why it wasn't perfectly clear
Never has a sign been so poorly misread
Following your lead has left me badly misled
What is the ugly truth I'm wishing was a lie
I'll never understand, I shouldn't even try
I didn't know I was saying goodbye

I know why I still ask, "Why?"
I didn't know I was saying goodbye

Oh you never know, you never know
You never know the last time
Now you'll never show
And missing you will be my brand new past time

I know why I still ask, "Why?"
I didn't know I was saying goodbye
