I'm leaving
For Phoenix, Arizona
As the yellow sun
Collapses to the ground
And blink
As stars ?? into ashes
And all the words you're searching for
Don't have a sound
It doesn't have to mean goodbye
When I'm gone
It doesn't have to break our hearts
To move on
We've lost a thousand loves
In a thousand lives before
This is just one more
A memory
Fades in and out of focus
The color's not as crisp
As they once looked
And all the time and space
That's gotten in between us
Has turned us into characters
From forgotten books
It doesn't have to mean goodbye
When I'm gone
It doesn't have to break our hearts
To move on
We've lost a thousand loves
In a thousand lives before
This is just one more
Cry whatever tears you have to cry
My lonely friend
Shimmering as brilliant lives spin by
And some things end
And some things end
It doesn't have to mean goodbye
When I'm gone
It doesn't have to break our hearts
To move on
