Woorden: Heather Headley. In My Mind. Letter.

At first I wrote it "Dear, you", then it turned
"To whom it may concern"
I began it in this way because
I needed to express through these words
How deeply I was hurt
And how distant from you I now was

I wrote, "Normally I would say
These words to your face
But this time that I just can't do
'Cause I know the way you been movin'
And the things you been doin'
And right now I can't stand the sight of you"

So this is my goodbye
This means we are not together
This means that you're free
See who you wanna see, and me
Well, I know I can do better

So this is my goodbye
This makes it official, you've lost me forever
We are now the past, and it's kinda sad
That you had to read it in this letter
This is my goodbye

By the time you finish this
I'll be gone for good, your lesson learned
Where it is I'll be, and who's lovin' me
Sorry baby, that's no longer your concern
So tell your lil' friend she'll be in my prayers

'Cause just having to deal with you
Is enough to break your soul
I just hope she knows exactly
What it is she's getting into?

So this is my goodbye
This means we are not together
This means that you're free
See who you wanna see, and me
Well, I know I can do better

So this is my goodbye
This makes it official, you've lost me forever
We are now the past, and it's kinda sad
That you had to read it in this letter
This is my goodbye

Not that it matters to you
But I wrote this with clear and dry eyes
The years of being mistreated by you
I've cried all the tears I can cry

So this is the end, done and over with
Believe me when I say that you won't be missed
No hug, no kiss, signed sincerely
P.S. forget you ever knew me

This is my goodbye
This means we are not together
This means that you're free
See who you wanna see, and me
Well, I know I can do better

This is my goodbye
This makes it official, you've lost me forever
We are now the past, and it's kinda sad
That you had to read it in this letter
This is my goodbye

No, see who you wanna see, and me
Well, I know I can do better
That you had to read it in this letter
This is my goodbye

This is my goodbye
You've lost me forever
We are now the past, and it's kinda sad
That you had to read it in this letter
This is my goodbye
