learnt to love goodbyes

I read the stories, seen the films, I know it all Better to lose a love then never love at all But growing up the hurt was all I ever saw You say you're different, you won't leave me I've heard it before Everyone's different 'til I show every one of my flaws I don't expect you to pick me up every time I fall People coming and going, but they never stay There's always a reason the cab's five minutes away No need to act like you won't do the same I've learnt to love goodbyes I'm so used to people leaving, I don't cry I've learnt to love goodbye So if you're going you don't need to tell me why I've learnt to love goodbyes You're picture perfect on paper, just what I'm looking for Someone I'd show to my sister and know that she'd adore But I'm scared of commitment, my head and heart's at war (My head and heart's, my, my, head and heart) ooh People coming and going, but they never stay There's always a reason the cab's five minutes away No need to act like you won't do the same I've learnt to love goodbyes I'm so used to people leaving, I don't cry (ohh) I've learnt to love goodbye (I've learnt, ohh, I've learnt) So if you're going you don't need to tell me why I've learnt to love goodbyes I've learnt to love goodbyes --- learnt to love goodbyes - Cat Burns
