Two Ways to Say Goodbye

Last night I slept in a bed of tears
But I woke up a better man
There's a space in between who you want and who I am
And some day, baby, we'll both understand

Now I could tell you that you'll be alright
And I couldn't hold you, keep lying

One way is holding on
One way is being strong
There's two ways to say goodbye
Your tears are made of pride
My tears have all been cried
There's two ways to say goodbye

Today I decided to take the long way home
I figured that the drive would do me good
I finally feel awake for the first time
I better get home to do what's right, that's right

'Cause one way is holding on
One way is being strong
There's two ways to say goodbye
Your tears are made of pride
My tears have all been cried
There's two ways to say goodbye

Now I won't tell you that you'll be alright
So please don't ask me to spend the night
'Cause I don't wanna hold you and keep lying

One way is holding on
Oh, but I got to be strong
Either way it's goodbye, it's just a matter of time
Your tears are made of pride
My tears have all been cried
There's two ways to say goodbye

Wherever you go
Want you to know
There's two ways to say goodbye
Wherever you go
Want you to know
Two ways, goodbye
