I heard you laughing in a crowd outside a restaurant we used to go to
I caught a glimpse that stopped me in my tracks
It took me back
You looked happy with that little girl on your shoulders, happy
I know where she got those crystal eyes of blue
Time´s been sweet to you

[Chorus:]
As bad as it was, as bad as it hurt
I thank God I didn´t get what I thought that I deserved
Sometimes life leads you down a different road
When you´re holding on to someone that you gotta let go
Someday you´ll see the reason why
Sometimes, yeah sometimes, there´s good in goodbye

I don´t regret it
The time we had together
I won´t forget it
But we both ended up where we belong
I guess goodbye made us strong
And yeah I´m happy
I found somebody too who makes me happy
And I knew one day I´ll see you on the street
And it´d be bittersweet

[Chorus:]
As bad as it was, as bad as it hurt
I thank God I didn´t get what I thought that I deserved
Sometimes life leads you down a different road
When you´re holding on to someone that you gotta let go
Someday you´ll see the reason why
Sometimes, yeah sometimes, there´s good in goodbye
Yeah, yeah

[Outro:]
As bad as it was, as bad as it hurt
I thank God I didn´t get what I thought that I deserved
Sometimes life leads you down a different road
When you´re holding on to someone that you got to let go
Someday you´ll see the reason why
Yeah someday you´ll see the reason why
There´s good in goodbye, yeah
There´s good in goodbye
