Goodbye In His Eyes lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

I could tell that it was over

When his lips met mine

It was an emptiness in his voice

Hesitation when he smiled

He didn't have to say a word

It was just so plain to see

He had found what he'd been looking for

And I knew it wasn't me

I saw goodbye in his eyes

I don't think I can change it

There's no way to disguise

We will never make it

Sometimes I feel like a clown

Who can't wash off her make-up

The life I wanted ‒ it was gone

Prince Charming ‒ he wasn't

But I would trade a thousand Babylons

To be in his arms tomorrow

Oh, but like the tide his love has come and gone

And it's time for me to go

I saw goodbye in his eyes

I don't think I can change it

There's no way to disguise

We will never make it

Now he sees right through me

Should I hold on to what we've got

Is it just a waste of time?

One thing that I know for sure

I saw goodbye in his eyes

I saw goodbye in his eyes

I know you've got somebody new now

And all my candles have burned out

He's gonna love the way you shine

But so did I

So don't smile at me it ain't what you mean

(Goodbye)

With that goodbye in your eyes

I know that I can't change it (now you see right through me)

There's no way to disguise

We will never make it

I saw goodbye in your eyes

I know that I can't change it (now you see right through me, goodbye in your eyes!)

Should I hold on

We will never make it (now you see right through me, goodbye in your eyes!)

Should I hold on

Is it just a waste of time?

One thing that I know for sure

I saw goodbye in your eyes

I saw goodbye in your eyes

I know that it's over
