John Mayer – All We Ever Do Is Say Goodbye lyrics
Just when I had you off my head
Your voice comes thrashing wildly through my quiet bed
You say you wanna try again
But I've tried everything but giving in

Why you wanna break my heart again
Why am I gonna let you try

When all we ever do is say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye

I bought a ticket on a plane
And by the time it landed you had gone again

I love you more than songs can say
But I can't keep running after yesterday

Why you wanna break my heart again
Why am I gonna let you try

When all we ever do is say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye

We say goodbye
We say goodbye
We say goodbye

All we ever do is say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye
All we ever do is say goodbye

All we ever do is say goodbye
(To fade...)

    This is a song about not being able to give up on old love. He obviously loves her with all his heart, but they just don't really seem to be meant for one another. They try to work things out, but they just keep messing it up and breaking things off. It is just that chemistry and those sexual urges that keep making them go back to each other. He wishes it could work, but they've tried enough times and its not healthy to keep doing that.
