Goodbye, it's goodnight
I'm waiting for this last chance
Please save me a last dance
Goodbye, it's goodnight
I'm waiting for this last chance

I could never find the right words to say
How I pictured it would play in a scenario of romance
Sixteen, only looking forward to the summer
Who'd have known I would find you at the rock show?
Starting with hellos then exchanging numbers
Keeping conversations on the phone till I see ya
Got my plan changed from the amount that I text you
Trying to be the one you wanna fall asleep next to
She said, "Someday I will fly to California"
I said, "One day I will tour around the world"
She said, "Come and find me wherever I go"
So I started a band and I hit the road, singing
Goodbye, it's goodnight
I'm waiting for this last chance
Please save me a last dance
Goodbye, it's goodnight
I'm waiting for this last chance
Please save me a last dance
Four more months until your graduation
Skipping class just 'cause that's how they do college
High school sucks, but I have to acknowledge
Good times spent till the end of your practice
Time it just right so I could walk her to her place
Bought the last flight back home for your birthdays
Got a real job trying too hard to impress her
When I should have known that was not what she's into
She said, "Soon I will fly away to California"
I said, "One day I will tour around the world"
She said, "Come and find me wherever I go"
So I started a band and I hit the road, singing
Goodbye, it's goodnight
I'm waiting for this last chance
Please save me a last dance
Goodbye, it's goodnight
I'm waiting for this last chance
Please save me a last dance
♪
Ten years flew right out of the window
Sold out shows from Osaka to Tokyo
Traveling the world one show at a time
And I heard she's still absolutely one of a kind
She is done with the search, stopped dating these jerks
Found the man she deserved that she goes with to church
She's moved on with her life, got a job and a house
Paying taxes on time like a proper adult
She said, "This is life I live in California
While you're touring all around the world"
Even if I never ever see her
At least you got a catchy song that goes
Goodbye, it's goodnight
I'm waiting for this last chance
Please save me a last dance
Goodbye, it's goodnight
I'm waiting for this last chance
Please save me a last dance
Goodbye, it's goodnight
It's goodbye, it's goodnight
