I heard you laughing
In a crowd outside a restaurant we used to go to
Caught a glimpse that caught me in my tracks
It took me back
You looked happy
With that little girl up on your shoulders, happy
I know where she got those crystal eyes of blue
Time's been sweet to you

Chorus:
As bad as it was
As bad as it hurts
I thank God I didn't get what I thought that I deserved
Sometimes life leads you down a different road
When you're holding onto someone that you gotta let go
Someday you'll see the reason why
Sometimes, yeah sometimes
There's good in goodbye
I don't regret it
The time we had together
I won't forget it
But we both ended up where we belong
I guess goodbye made us strong
And yeah I'm happy

I found somebody too who makes me happy
And I knew one day I'd see you on the street
And it'd be bittersweet
Chorus:
But as bad as it was
As bad as it hurts
I thank God I didn't get what I thought that I deserved
Sometimes life leads you down a different road
When you're holding onto someone that you gotta let go
Someday you'll see the reason why
Yeah sometimes, yeah sometimes
There's good in goodbye
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
As bad as it was
Yeah as bad as it hurt
I thank God I didn't get what I thought that I deserved
Sometimes life leads you down a different road
When you're holding onto someone that you've got to let go
Someday you'll see the reason why
Yeah, someday you'll see the reason why
There's good in goodbye
Yeah, yeah
There's good in goodbye
