Verse 1:
You should have known
that you'd be here again
Making the same mistakes
For the same reasons
Not everyone deserves
a second chance
Why are you so in love
with bittersweet romance?
Refrain:
It's alright
It's ok
I'll still be here
when all of this is over
Chorus 1:
So long
Goodbye
Now just fall asleep
To this lullaby
That i'll sing to
To you every night
I know your world's a mess
but everything will be alright

Verse 2:
I should have known that
you'd be here again
Why do broken hearts
hold on to broken friends?
Not everything that's
good was meant to last
But if it never was
it never had a chance
(you never had a chance)
(Repeat Chorus 1 twice)
Bridge:
I know your world's a mess
but everything will be alright
(now just close your eyes
and kiss them all goodbye)
I know your world's a mess
but everything will be alright
(so just close your eyes
G5 (Repeat Intro)
just close your eyes)
(Repeat chorus 1)
Chorus 2:
So long
Goodbye
Now just fall asleep
Like you do every night
And when you wake up
I'll still be by your side
I know your world's a mess
but everything will be alright
I know your world's a mess
(hold)
but everything will be alright
