How To Say Goodbye

Nobody taught me how to love you
It was already in my heart
Nobody told me that you were the one
I knew it right from the start

Nobody said it would always be easy
Sometimes it turned out bad
And I knew that all those happy endings
Had a way of turning out sad

Nobody taught me how to be a man
Or how to take care of my wife
But I knew you would help me face my fears
As we walked together through life

Nobody told me you would die so young
And leave me here all alone
But I knew you'd make me the person I am
The person you've always known

Nobody told me I would have to go on
Though I told you I would try
But the one thing today I still haven't learned
Is how to say goodbye
