Lesley Roy - Slow Goodbye Lyrics

I can read the lines on your face and they're telling me
Everything I already know, yeah
I hold you in my arms but you're light-years away from me
Slowly sinking under alone, yeah

So I act cool on the outside
But it's eating me alive

'Cause when it comes to you there's nothing I can do
I can't make you love me when you don't
I see it in your eyes all the compromise
No, I can't take another slow goodbye

Sitting in the park after dark
Smoking cigarettes, biting on the black of my nails
'Cause all I ever wanted was what you took away from me
Trying to make it right but it's too late

I'm a hopeless case on the inside
And it's eating me alive

'Cause when it comes to you there's nothing I can do
I can't make you love me when you don't
I see it in your eyes all the compromise
No, I can't take another slow goodbye

I die a million times, every time when you look me in the eye
I die 'cause I've heard it all before
The same game going around and around
But I still end up with nothing but hurting

'Cause when it comes to you there's nothing I can do
I can't make you love me when you don't
I see it in your eyes all the compromise
No, I can't take another slow goodbye

No, there's nothing I can do
I can't make you love me when you don't
I see it in your eyes all the compromise
No, I can't take another slow goodbye
