don’t want to say goodbye lyrics

(Verse 1)
The clock ticks slow, the night feels cold
Empty echoes, stories untold
Your shadow lingers, fades away
But I can't let you leave today

(Chorus)
I don't want to say goodbye
Tears fall hard, I can't lie
Hold me close, just for a while
Let me drown in your last smile

(Verse 2)
The silence screams, it cuts so deep
In this hollow, I can't sleep
Memories haunt every breath
A bitter taste, a slow regret

(Chorus)
I don't want to say goodbye
Tears fall hard, I can't lie
Hold me close, just for a while
Lеt me drown in your last smile

(Bridge)
Thе world may turn, the seasons change
But my heart won't rearrange
You're the scar I can't erase
The ghost I chase, the empty space
(Chorus)
I don't want to say goodbye
Tears fall hard, I can't lie
Hold me close, just for a while
Let me drown in your last smile

(Outro)
So here I stand, lost and torn
In the silence, I am worn
Goodbye whispers, cold and dry
But I refuse to say goodbye
