wave goodbye - chris cornell

Words get tangled on you tongue,
and you stumble on your feet -
when you miss somebody.
And everywhere you think you see them,
walking down the street -
when you miss somebody.
When you miss somebody,
you tell yourself a hundred thousand times,
"Nobody ever lives forever,"
so you give it one more try:
To wave goodbye, wave goodbye...

Every hurtful thing you ever said is ringing in your ear,
when you miss somebody.
And every thing of beauty that you see -
it only brings a tear,
when you miss somebody.
Yeah, when you miss somebody,
you tell yourself that everything will be alright.
You try to stand up strong and brave,
but all you wanna do, is lay down and die.

How long I've waited for an answer or a sign...
Lonley and weary from this troubles task of trying,
to wave goodbye.

So now you start to recognize that every single path you see,
leads to a tear in your eye.
So wave goodbye...
Wave goodbye.
