Lesley Roy Slow Goodbye Lyrics

Slow Goodbye Lyrics

I can read the lines on your face and they're telling me

Everything I already know, yeah

I hold you in my arms but you're light-years away from me

Slowly sinking under alone, yeah



So I act cool on the outside

But it's eating me alive



'Cause when it comes to you there's nothing I can do

I can't make you love me when you don't

I see it in your eyes all the compromise

No, I can't take another slow goodbye



Sitting in the park after dark

Smoking cigarettes, biting on the black of my nails

'Cause all I ever wanted was what you took away from me

Trying to make it right but it's too late



I'm a hopeless case on the inside

And it's eating me alive



'Cause when it comes to you there's nothing I can do

I can't make you love me when you don't

I see it in your eyes all the compromise

No, I can't take another slow goodbye



I die a million times, every time when you look me in the eye

I die 'cause I've heard it all before

The same game going around and around

But I still end up with nothing but hurting



'Cause when it comes to you there's nothing I can do

I can't make you love me when you don't

I see it in your eyes all the compromise

No, I can't take another slow goodbye



No, there's nothing I can do

I can't make you love me when you don't

I see it in your eyes all the compromise

No, I can't take another slow goodbye
