Lyrics

This is goodbye
Glowing in the night
A swarm of butterflies
Flowing like the rain coming down from my eyes
Tail lights, a river of lonely cries
I'm moving on tonight
Leaving all my memories behind
Somewhere on this highway they'll be
Just another illusion to me

Saw it coming as we grew apart
You kept on hiding something from me, and I knew
You were only playing a game
Changing to another lane
But it's too late
Too late to change

I won't be staying
Now I know the truth behind the lies in your eyes
And I can't be with you anymore
It's time for me to move on
And finally I will be
Able to fly like the butterfly I've kept inside of my heart
I can finally spread my wings
Flying so free now
I can finally spread my wings

This is goodbye
Glowing in the night
A swarm of butterflies
Flowing like the rain coming down from my eyes
Tail lights, a river of lonely cries
I'm moving on tonight
Leaving all my memories behind
Somewhere on this highway they'll be
Just another illusion to me
Goodbye
