packing boxes all night
reading letters from you for the last time
for real
leaving you behind was easy
now i know how little you feel
now i wasted all my wishes on you
i have nothing left to gain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain
i made a paper boat and watched it going down the drain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain
thought i'd thrown them all away
finding one last souvenir behind
my bureau drawer
feeling sad all on my own
i don't need you for that anymore
and i wasted all my wishes on you
i have nothing left to gain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain
i made a paper boat and watched it going down the drain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain
you can't stand to see me losing
all my precious sinlessness
now my heart is out of your hands
you couldn't possibly want it back
any less
now i wasted all my wishes on you
i have nothing left to gain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain
i made a paper boat and watched it going down the drain
so goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain
goodbye, wishing you well and hello rain
