Occurred to me the other day
You''ve been gone now a couple years
Well I guess it takes a while
For someone to really disappear
And I remember where I was
When the word came about you
It was a day much like today
The sky was bright and wide and blue
* And I wonder where you are
And if the pain ends when you die
And I wonder if there was
Some better way to say goodbye
Today my heart is big and sore
It''s trying to push right through my skin
Won''t see you anymore
I guess that''s finally sinking in
Cause you can''t make somebody see
With the simple words you say
All their beauty from within
Sometimes they just look away
* Repeat
Some better way to say goodbye, oh...
