Verse 1 I heard you laughing in a crowd outside a restaurant we used to go to I caught a glimpse that stopped me in my tracks It took me back You looked happy with that little girl on your shoulders happy I know where she got those crystal eyes of blue Time’s been sweet to you As bad as it was 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 on to someone that you gotta let go Someday you’ll see the reason why Sometimes yeah sometimes there’s good in goodbye Verse 2               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’ll see you on the street And it’d be bittersweet As bad as it was 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 on to someone that you gotta let go Someday you’ll see the reason why Sometimes yeah sometimes there’s good in goodbye Yeah yeah Outro As bad as it was 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 on to someone that you gotta let go Someday you’ll see the reason why Yeah someday you’ll see the reason why There’s good in goodbye yeah There’s good in goodbye

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la nostalgie d'une relation passée, où l’artiste croise quelqu'un de son passé qui semble heureux. Elle reflète sur la difficulté des séparations, mais aussi sur la façon dont elles peuvent mener à une force intérieure et à une meilleure réalisation de soi. Malgré la douleur ressentie, elle exprime une gratitude pour le chemin parcouru et pour les nouvelles rencontres qui apportent le bonheur. Le contexte de cette réflexion est celui du pardon et de l'acceptation; il s'agit de reconnaître que certaines fins, même douloureuses, peuvent être bénéfiques et ouvrir la voie à de nouvelles opportunités. C’est un message sur la croissance personnelle et la capacité à voir le bon côté des choses dans des moments d’adieu.
