about

I Hate Goodbyes is an "Is this love song" written in the hopeful space of falling in love and feeling like the world will conspire to help you against all odds.

lyrics

You said you’re perfect for me
Then you said you didn’t mean it
Well nobody is perfect
So I’d never believe it
But you’re doing a pretty good job at convincing me

Said you’d been waiting two years to fall in love
As if a shooting star will hit you from the heavens above
It doesn’t work that way, it doesn’t work that way baby

And I’ll be here in America
Or we could travel the world
We could be one in the sun
Or just another girl
You took me by surprise
With your sparkly eyes
Oh god I hate goodbyes

You got a lot to learn
But you’re smart for your age
And from what I can read
We’re on the same page
And it looks like you got some tricks up your sleeve

Hey beautiful person
Hey dreamy face
You got me floating on a magic rug in outer space
Why did you have to go home
Why did I have to leave

And I’ll be here in America
Or we could travel the world
We could be one in the sun
Or am I just another girl
Oh you took me by surprise
With your sparkly eyes
Oh God I hate goodbyes

TC your face is so dreamy
Oh TC your face is so dreamy

I’ll be here in America
Or we could travel the world
We could be one in the sun
Or am I just another girl
Oh you took me by surprise
With your sparkly eyes
Oh God I hate goodbyes
Oh what a good surprise
You got those sparkly eyes
Oh God I hate goodbyes
Oh what a good surprise
You got those sparkly eyes
Oh God I hate goodbyes
