You left me hanging from the thread we once swung from together
I licked my wounds but I can’t ever see them getting better
Something’s gotta change
Things cannot stay the same
Her hair was pressed against her face
Her eyes were red with anger
Enraged by things unsaid and empty beds and bad behavior
Something’s gotta change
It must be rearranged

I’m sorry I did not mean to hurt my little girl
It’s beyond me I cannot carry the weight of the heavy world
So goodnight goodnight
Goodnight goodnight goodnight
Goodnight goodnight goodnight
Goodnight hope that things work out alright

The room was silent as we all tried so hard to remember
The way it feels to be alive the day that he first met her
Something’s gotta change
Things cannot stay the same
You make me think of someone wonderful but I can’t place her
I wake up every morning wishing one more time to face her
Something’s gotta change
It must be rearranged

I’msorry I did not mean to hurt my little girl
It’s beyond me I cannot carry the weight of the heavy world
So goodnight goodnight
Goodnight goodnight goodnight
Goodnight goodnight goodnight
Goodnight hope that things work out alright

So much to love so much to learn
But I won’t be there to teach you
I know I can’t be close But I try my best to reach you
I’m so Sorry I did not mean to hurt my little girl
It’s beyond me I cannot carry the weight of the heavy world
So goodnight goodnight
Goodnight goodnight goodnight
Goodnight goodnight goodnight
Goodnight goodnight goodnight
Goodnight goodnight hope that things work out alright yeah
