Say Goodbye Lyrics

If I seem distant, baby I am
Words are like scissors in your hands
And there is no script to follow
So I just close my eyes
That way it won't hurt so much
When we say goodbye
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e65725-katharine_mcphee~say_goodbye_lyrics.html ]
I feel just like an actress up on the stage
I can't believe what I'm hearing myself say
And the porch light is my spotlight
So I play along with this life
That way it won't hurt so much
When we say goodbye

Did you ever love me
Does it even matter
Did you even notice
The whole world shatter
I just wanna hold you
Tell you that I'm sorry
But I just keep it all inside
That way it won't hurt so much
When we say goodbye

My heart feels like a circus
It's too much to take in
It's hard to lose love
But you were my best friend
So I walk this high wire alone tonight
That way it won't hurt so much
When we say goodbye

That way it won't hurt so much
When we say goodbye
