This isn't meant to be a downer, because my spouse and I are still together (miracle of the program).

Goodbye to You --Words and Music by MICHELLE BRANCH

I've been searching deep down in my soul, Words that I'm hearin' are starting to get old, It feels like I'm starting all over again, The last three years were just pretend, And I say,
****Goodbye to You, Goodbye to everything I thought I knew, You were the one I loved, The one thing I tried to hold on to.
I still get lost in your eyes, And it seems I can't live a day without you, Closing my eyes, And you chase my thoughts away, To a place where I am blinded by the light, But it's not right.

Goodbye to You, Goodbye to everything I thought I knew, You were the one I loved, The one thing I tried to hold on to. *****Repeat Chorus again,
Oh, Oh, woah, And when the stars fall, I will lie awake. You're my shooting star.
