I rest my hand across your lips
Feel your breath by my fingertips
No longer can I lay what is right
But this love it won't get appropriate without a fight

I'd rather note and tear it up
There are no words that can say no
No I'm gonna hurt you and I'll walk out that door
But I swear it's gonna hurt me even more

[Chorus]
You taught me how to laugh
You taught me how to cry
When I gave up you even taught me how to try
There's one more thing to learn before I spread my
wings and fly
You gonna have to teach me how to say
Goodbye, goodbye

Wish I could see the dreams tonight
Wish I could name and turn them right
Tempted to turn back just one last kiss
But my heart tells me it's bad as just like this

So this is how the story ends
The love is gone we can't pretend
No matter who else I gave my heart to
There's a part of it that still belongs to you

[Chorus]
You taught me how to laugh
You taught me how to cry
When I gave up you even taught me how to try
There's one more thing to learn before I spread my
wings and fly

You gonna have to teach me how to say
Goodbye, goodbye

You made me stronger now honestly
Gave my heart and voice to speak
You must've known this day will come
But the lessons are all gone

All except for one, no

[Chorus]
You taught me how to laugh
You taught me how to cry
When I gave up you even taught me how to try
There's one more thing to learn
Before I spread my wings and fly

You gonna have to teach me how to say
Goodbye, goodbye

You gonna have to teach me how to say
Goodbye
