Goodnight / Goodbye - Will Hoge

I’m gonna ask about your day

You’ll just smile and look away

As you turn the hall light out

You’ll ask me how was work

Put on an old t-shirt

As you turn the covers down

We both know that everything has changed

But it all still looks the same

From the outside looking in

We both know it’s never gonna last

This ship is sinking fast

But we’ll ride it down again

And say goodnight

Because we just can’t say goodbye

We both memorize our lines

Said it all a thousand times

But the timing’s always wrong

Just two bad actors in a play

Don’t know how to leave the stage

As the house lights all come on

We both know that everything has changed

But it all still looks the same

From the outside looking in

We both know it’s never gonna last

This ship is sinking fast

But we’ll ride it down again

And say goodnight

Because we just can’t say goodbye

How many times do we go down

Until we finally make it through

Oh but something’s got me chained and bound

To throw it all away for you

So I’ll spend one more sleepless night

Pretend that everything’s alright

Until the day begins again

We both know that everything has changed

But it all still looks the same

From the outside looking in

We both know it’s never gonna last

This ship is sinking fast

But we’ll ride it down again

And say goodnight

Because we just can’t say goodbye
