'Cause every time I open up, it hurts So Iā²m never gonna get too close to you Even when I mean the most to you In case you go and leave me in the dirt And every time you hurt me, the less that I cry And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry And every time you walk out, the less I love you
(I'm way too good at goodbyes) [Chorus] 'Cause every time you hurt me, the less that I cry And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry And every time you walk out, the less I love you Baby we don't stand a chance, it's sad but it's true I'm way too good at goodbyes
