Lyrics Natalie Imbruglia – Goodbye In His Eyes
Text:
I could tell that it was over
When his lips met mine
It was an emptiness in his voice
Hesitation when he smiled
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
