The Perfect Girl To Say Goodbye To

You don't deserve me
I know that already
But you can bet I'll be
The perfect girl to say goodbye to

I can pretend it was fault of the rain
Which kept me in another day
But honestly I was hoping for a change
Overnight, over-day

And it is my mistake
Hoping for a miracle to take place
And it is my delirious heart
Playing the farce right into heartbreak

You don't deserve me
I know that already
But you can bet I'll be
The perfect girl to say goodbye to
Watch me leave
I will eventually
And you can bet on me
The perfect girl to say goodbye to

I can revel in any basic sense
That you can conjure and break down again
But honestly I was hoping, I was just hoping
Every day, oh, every day

And it is my mistake
Hoping for miracles to take place
And it is my delirious heart
Replaying the past for unprecedented haze

You don't deserve me
I know that already
But you can bet I'll be
The perfect girl to say goodbye to
Watch me leave
I will eventually
And you can bet on me
The perfect girl to say goodbye to

I recall acting crazily to every crazy thing you did to me
I recall the times I swore I'd never do it again
I remember the whole of December
How you made me feel like we could've worked
Then the stab in the back reminded me of the last time
I don't wanna keep being hurt
So now I'll keep my cool
I'll keep foul terms out of use
And bring you bundles of food
And clean your side of our room
And buy your favourite things
And see the joy I could bring
Keep my sadness at bay with my hurt
Be the perfect girl

The perfect girl to say goodbye to
Watch you leave
You will eventually
And I can bet on the
The perfect girl to say goodbye

Goodbye
