Prologue

I said too much, went way too far
It's only now, now we're apart
That I can see I was wrong
And you're where I belong
So please don't make me cry
I know you don't believe it
But I really didn't mean it
When I said goodbye

“It’s hell being here. We’re here, watching them get on with their lives, and their new relationships while we’re both stuck here. Why can't we be back there? We can't see the people we love because of the actions of one person. We’re watching over them, we always have been. But they’ve never once even mentioned our names. Never.”

When I said goodbye

I was a fool, now I'm alone
Would you have stayed
Stayed if you had known
That every thought is of you
Hurt is all I can do
Without you in my life.

“They might’ve never mentioned our names, but it doesn’t mean they’ve forgotten us. No matter how many other relationships they’ve had, they will always love us, even if they realised it’s too late. And the same with us, we might not be around anymore, but it doesn’t mean that we’re not still watching over them. Making sure that they're safe. Kerry, we’ll always have them.”

I know you don't believe it
But I really didn't mean it
When I said goodbye

I can't bear to watch you fly
I need you in my life
Don't say goodbye
Let's give love another try
Used to be that you and me
Was all we needed to know
I can't believe you're leaving
And I can't live my life alone

“Yeah, but look at all the other relationships they’ve had. The way he was acting with them, it was like he did love them. One of the very last things he said to me was that he loved me. And Andrea, you mellowed the iceman; he was never that loving until you came along. But he still got back with his wife.”

We've changed so much
And still love remains
Let's work it out
There's no need to turn the page
Your love is everything
Don't let go, we can win
If we would only try

“I know that, but he never loved her. Not really. The only thing holding them together was their child, but now he doesn’t even have him anymore. He was going to leave her and move in with me before disaster struck. He was prepared to give up everything, even his career that he worked so hard at, just to be with me.”

I know you don't believe it
But I really didn't mean it
When I said goodbye

“We both wanna be back where we belong, with the people who loved us and with our friends. And it'll be an added bonus, cos the one person that caused all the heartache can't hurt us anymore. Or anyone else. You and I can see the people we love every day, but we can't talk to them, touch them or anything. I just wanna hold him one last time and tell him I love him. And don't say that you don't either, I know you do.

Goodbye

“Of course I do, you know I do! Falling for a married man wasn’t exactly part of the job description! But I can't help the way I feel! You know what they say, you don't plan who you fall for, it just happens! You didn’t plan to fall for him. But everyone could see he loved you. Someday, we will see them again, you have to believe that! Just for now, expect the unexpected!”
