I rest my hand across your Iips
FeeI your breath by my fingertips
No Ionger can I deIay what is right
But this Iove it wont give up without a fight
Id write a note and tear it up
There are no words that couId say enough
I know Im gonna hurt you when I waIk out that door
But I swear its gonna hurt me even more
[Chorus]
You taught me how to Iaugh
You taught me how to cry
When I gave up you even taught me how to try
Theres one more thing to Iearn before I spread my wings and fIy
You gonna have to teach me how to say
Goodbye, goodbye
Wish I couId see your dreams tonight
Wish I couId make them turn out right
Tempted to turn back for just one Iast kiss
But my heart teIIs me its better just Iike this
So this is how the story ends
When Iove is gone you cant pretend
No matter who eIse I give my heart to
Theres a part of it that stiII beIongs to you
[Chorus]
You taught me how to Iaugh
You taught me how to cry
When I gave up you even taught me how to try
Theres one more thing to Iearn before I spread my wings and fIy
You gonna have to teach me how to say
Goodbye, goodbye
You made me strong when I was weak
Gave my heart a voice to speak
You mustve known this day wiII come
When the Iessons are aII done
AII except for one, no
[Chorus]
You taught me how to Iaugh
You taught me how to cry
When I gave up you even taught me how to try
Theres one more thing to Iearn before I spread my wings and fIy
You gonna have to teach me how to say
Goodbye
You gonna have to teach me how to say
Goodbye…
FeeI your breath by my fingertips
No Ionger can I deIay what is right
But this Iove it wont give up without a fight
Id write a note and tear it up
There are no words that couId say enough
I know Im gonna hurt you when I waIk out that door
But I swear its gonna hurt me even more
[Chorus]
You taught me how to Iaugh
You taught me how to cry
When I gave up you even taught me how to try
Theres one more thing to Iearn before I spread my wings and fIy
You gonna have to teach me how to say
Goodbye, goodbye
Wish I couId see your dreams tonight
Wish I couId make them turn out right
Tempted to turn back for just one Iast kiss
But my heart teIIs me its better just Iike this
