I watched the [bad word] up over the Chicago skyline
Drove through a whole night just to make it right
The last thing I remember, you were begging me not to go
You had that look of sadness on your face, that only I would know

I thought a lot about the summers passed
Your hair in your eyes
And how we spent the whole night saying goodbye
Saying goodbye, like it was the last time

I thought I forgot my past
But that all changed today
I know it was wrong of me to try to throw this all away
So if you give it just one more try
I'll give you everything you need
She said
"Just tell me what changed your mind, what brought you back to me?"
And I said

I thought a lot about the summers passed
Your hair in your eyes
And how we spent the whole night saying goodbye
Saying goodbye
We always thought that those days would last
We felt so hard
And how we spent the whole night saying goodbye
Saying goodbye, like it was the last time

Another month that's faded away
Minutes feel like hours, hours like days
When will I see, what can she say?
She said

I thought a lot about the summers passed
Your hair in your eyes
And how we spent the whole night saying goodbye
Saying goodbye
We always thought that those days would last
We felt so hard
And how we spent the whole night saying goodbye
Saying goodbye
Saying goodbye, saying goodbye
Like it was the last time
