Too Good At Goodbyes Lyrics

[00:00.73] You must think that I'm stupid
[00:05.86] You must think that I'm a fool
[00:10.92] You must think that I'm new to this
[00:15.75] But I have seen this all before
[00:20.65] I'm never gonna let you close to me
[00:23.18] Even though you mean the most to me
[00:25.77] 'Cause every time I open up, it hurts
[00:30.86] So, I'm never gonna get too close to you
[00:33.67] Even when I mean the most to you
[00:36.36] In case you go and leave me in the dirt
[00:40.32] But every time you hurt me, the less that I cry
[00:45.21] And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry
[00:50.55] And every time you walk out, the less I love you
[00:55.74] Baby, we don't stand a chance, it's sad, but it's true
[01:00.38] I'm way too good at goodbyes
[01:02.85] (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
[01:05.40] I'm way too good at goodbyes
[01:08.02] (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
[01:13.08] I know you're thinking I'm heartless
[01:18.43] I know you're thinking I'm cold
[01:23.58] I'm just protecting my innocence
[01:28.75] I'm just protecting my soul
[01:33.63] I'm never gonna let you close to me
[01:36.17] Even though you mean the most to me
[01:38.97] 'Cause every time I open up, it hurts
[01:43.75] So, I'm never gonna get too close to you
[01:46.76] Even when I mean the most to you
[01:49.16] In case you go and leave me in the dirt
[01:53.25] But every time you hurt me, the less that I cry
[01:58.46] And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry
[02:03.62] And every time you walk out, the less I love you
[02:08.79] Baby, we don't stand a chance, it's sad, but it's true
[02:13.33] I'm way too good at goodbyes
[02:16.15] (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
[02:18.64] I'm way too good at goodbyes
[02:21.18] (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
[02:23.64] No way that you'll see me cry
[02:26.32] (No way that you'll see me cry)
[02:28.84] I'm way too good at goodbyes
[02:31.60] (I'm way too good at goodbyes) no
[02:34.15]
[02:36.68] No, no, no, no, no (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
[02:39.47] No, no, no, no
[02:42.02] No, no, no (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
[02:47.03] (No way that you'll see me cry)
[02:49.92] Ah-ah-ah (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
[02:55.31] 'Cause every time you hurt me, the less that I cry
[03:00.99] And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry
[03:06.11] And every time you walk out, the less I love you
[03:11.13] Baby, we don't stand a chance, it's sad, but it's true
[03:16.17] I'm way too good at goodbyes
[03:17.75]
