Say Goodnight Instead - JOHNNYSWIM

Don’t say goodbye love, just say goodnight

Though I know you’ll be gone by morning

I’ll wake up, pretend that we’re still alright

And next time I’ll heed all your warnings

'Cause we got a beautiful thing

A thing that’s not easy to find

So don’t say goodbye love, say goodnight

And we’ll save goodbye for when it dies

'Cause I want to go to bed dreaming that we are still happy

You’ll read me the paper, I’ll pour you some coffee

Go to bed dreaming that we are still happy instead

I’ll plant all the daisies you gave to me

Here in this ground we’ve been sharing

Oh what a shame, what a pity it’d be

If our petals fell before their’s did

'Cause we got a beautiful thing

A thing that’s not easy to find

So don’t say goodbye love, say goodnight

And we’ll save goodbye for when it dies

Oh, we’ll save goodbye for when it dies

I want to go to bed dreaming that we are still happy

We’ll make our bed early and drink all our coffee

Wave at the neighbors and work our bones until the sun goes down

I’m gonna go to bed dreaming that you are still happy

That I’m still the girl that you loved from that party

We’ll go to bed early, just set the coffee and say goodnight instead

Oh just say goodnight instead

Oh just say goodnight instead

Say goodnight instead

It’s been so long since I felt you burning

So long since I’ve felt your heat

So long since I’ve felt you burn for me

So long since I’ve felt your heat

So don’t say it

No, don’t say it

Don’t say it

Just say goodnight instead
