I've got an ice-cold cup of coffee 
And a paper I haven't read 
A canyon in my heart 
And a hammer in my head 
And a waitress with an empty stare 
That looks right through me 
I'm sitting at a table 
And I'm balancing the salt 
Weighing out my choices 
Baby, It's nobodys fault 
And I'm torn up by these voices 
Talking to me 
You say there's no good reason 
For me to walk away 
You say there's so much good between us 
Who wouldn't want to stay 
But how can I be with you 
If deep down I believe I'll loose a part of me 

Sometimes goodbye is the only open door 
I can't turn back when I know there's something more 
I gotta find what my heart beats for 

I've got a half a page of reasons 
And a napkin full of tears 
From trying to pull my spirit 
Through the pocket of my fears 
As the lunch croud emptys out 
Into the city 
And there may not be a way for me 
To make you understand 
I'll write down the words I'm feeling 
And I'll leave it in your hands 
But the memories of our love 
I'm taking with me 
You say there's no good reason 
For me to walk away 
You say we're meant to be together 
And I'm making a mistake 
But this emptiness inside me 
Has brought me to this road and I have to let you go 

Sometimes goodbye is the only open door 
I can't turn back when I know there's something more 
I gotta find what my heart beats for 

For the passion everlasting 
For deepest dream 
For a chance to love like that 
There is no in between 

Sometimes goodbye is the only open door 
I can't turn back when I know there's something more 
I gotta find what my heart beats for
