Nina – I Love You Goodbye lyrics
Wish I could be the one
The one who could give you love
The kind of love you really need
Wish I could say to you
That I'll always stay with you
But baby that's not me
You need someone willing to give their heart and soul to you
Promise you forever, baby that's something I can't do
Oh I could say that I'll be all you need
But that would be a lie
I know I'd only hurt you
I know I'd only make you cry
I'm not the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye


I hope someday you can
Find some way to understand I'm only doing this for you
I don't really wanna go
But deep in my heart I know this is the kindest thing to do
You'll need someone who'll be the one that I could never be
Who'll give you something better
Than the love you'll find with me
Oh I could say that I'll be all you need
But that would be a crime
I know I'd only hurt you
I know I'd only make you cry
I'm not
the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye

Leaving someone when you love someone
Is the hardest thing to do
When you love someone as much as
I love you

Oh I don't wanna leave you
Baby it tears me up inside
But I'll never be the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye

Baby, it's never ganna work out
I love you, goodbye

    When you find someone. Who can deeply connect to your soul, who can understand you even when you need not to say a word, who is not afraid to tell you something that may hurt because he wants to be honest with you in every way, who still stands by you even if he has seen you @ your worst of your weakness, who shows you his perspective of building a family, who sees his unborn children in your eyes. Then he is made for you. Your relationship will be tested like how gold is tested by fire but be strong coz you know there is no one else like him and he's all worth fighting for. Never aim for people to understand the kind of love you both have because some never will. You are the only one who knows what you feel, how you feel, and why you feel it. Time will prove that you are for each other when the world sees you happy and still together forever.

    To those who left a comment here, kindly read my advice:.
    No one knows what will be happened into your life. Once you love someone, you know the possibilities, you know the risks and sacrifices about to happen. Its nice to know when you both love each other. But we cannot deny the fact that time will come to dare your relationship, to test how strong your faith and trust to one another. The hardest things to do is to let him/her free knowing that he/she could find happiness that he/she is looking for with somebody. But you don't to feel regrets, because it is not your loss. You make him/her to stay but still he/she wants to go, you did all the things to make him/her happy, but he/she didn't appreciate it. Those people are not worth to be loved. They don't have contentment in their lives. Common, stand up, failures are not there to make you weak instead, it's there to make you strong, trials are the spices of our lives, without it, life could not be meaningful. So cheer up, life is the best things we have from our God. Maybe you fail this time, but on the side, there would be a really good things awaiting for you.

    I'm sorry but I've to move on as you are married and you can't decide what and who you need in life. We were together for 4 years and we are still. Nothing is change. I'm sorry goodbye. Hope you and wife will be happy together and please I'm begging you to stop keep on promising me that you want to marry me coz you know that you can't. Yes, I've my fault too and I've decided to leave as you deserve someone much better than me. I want to see you happy and I'm leaving you for your happiness. Will always love you, forever.

    My only question is, why do people need to leave if they really love a person? , some people says because of some reasons but I didn't get it.
    It's really hard to leave the person you really love, it's like a thousands of big rocks that been throw to your heart. But I know that nobody can tell if what is ryt in terms of love. But I learned from someone that if you really love a person you will let them go for good sake.

    This song is also ddcated to my X too. Hahay! Wish I cud be the one, the one who could give you love, the kind of you really need, wish I cud say to you, that i'll always stay with you, but baby that's not me. Kailangan kong iwan ang bf ko nun kasi hindi ko sya kayang pasayahin, mahal ko sya pero meron pang babae na higit pang magmamahal sa kanya, at alam ko hindi ako yun, masasabi kung karapat dapat ako sa kanya pero hindi xa karapatdapat sa akin, hehe ang gulo noh? Kaya magulo kami dalawa. Kaya we decided to end up our relationship kahit mahal namin ang isat isa. Kaya I love you goodbye na lang sa kanya.

    It's so sad when you let go of the person whom you love so much, whom you treasure in your life just because you think that he/she does not deserve you. Pero di mo rin ba naisip na sa ginawa mo, hindo mo siya binigyan nang chance para mamili kung gusto ka pa ba niya sa buhay niya o hindi? Siya ang dapat magdesisyon nun, hindi ikaw. Baka sa pag-aakala mo'ng mas makabubuti sa kanya ang paghihiwalay niyo ay makasama pa sa kanya, sa'yo at sa inyong dalawa. Puso at utak ang ginagamit sa pagmamahal, hindi tayo dapat nagpapadala sa bugso ng ating mga damdamin lang. Dahil sa huli, sarili mo lang din ang sinasaktan mo.

    My friend tell me this song wen I opend to her that I'm having problem abt my bf. I've been wit my bf 4 abt 4yrs bt what really ironic abt my relationship to him was that I'm aware that he was having affair with other. I thot I can stand but I was wrong hnd pla laging ok now I dnt know. I do cry bcz I missed him bt I started thinking if what the future has waitng for or s there any future waiting for me with? As of now its been a week I didn't ans his call but I didn't stop sending msges to bcz I knw he hardly open his cmputer he. Bt honestly I'm dying for missing him so much, kaya eto nilulunod ko ang sarile ko sa kntang to at tlg lng my tears cnt stop. Ilove you so much hope I make you happy for letting you 2 go 2 v more happy.

    This song it just a simple means to me letting go for someone you realy love you and sacrificing. Some people are just meant to be in your life no matter how much you want them to be. You hug him good-bye like its nothing while all you want to do is hold on forever. I used to smile whn told people tht you were mine, but now I cnt even smile and say your name at the same time. As much I love you, I have to say goodbye coz I know you would be happier if I let you go. Its never easy to turning back but I have to take the pain and cry all the way home coz I know it will nver be the same. I know when you leave, distance no matter how fair cnt chnge these feelings in my heart. Just turn you head when you see me, I will understand one day I will be able to look you in the eye. Without feeling the pain I've caused you. I hope in time you will be happy as you al my name, once again. Happines is too far us now but even if its near I knw it will be hard for us to get there. Baby its never gonna work out. I love you good bye.

    This happens when one thinks he is undeserving to one's love. Na kahit alam mo na mahal nyo ang isat isa, willing ka pa tin ilet go yung tao dahil alam mo na may ibang tao n mas deserving sa pagmamahal na pinaparamdam nya sayo. Kaya kht gaano mo sya kamahal, dahil alam mong hndi mo masuklian lahat ng gngwa nya.. kahit masakiyt, binitawan mo sya.

    Its a song that completely speaks for what my heart wants to say to my love. I'm a christian girl who happened to fall in love with a muslim guy. Breaking up with him is like pounding my own heart. They said, there are still many other men here on earth but I say there is only one him on earth, he who speaks what my heart wants to hear. I love you ahmed but I know, what I am doing now would make sense someday.

    This söng? Its so meaningful 4 me, you know we're love to each other but I know we're not mean to be, I need to set him even though he don't like me to go. Its so hard 4 me but I need to do it. I saw to his eyes that he loves me but what should I do if he don't know how to fight 4 love against to his family. We're different of status in life. They rich but me I'm not. That's why I love you goodbye.

    I want to hold you tyt here in my arms but the world says cannot and I should not hold on to. Ilove you so much but I need to let you go. Letting you go is like killing myself in so much painful way. I want to be wid you forever but a lot of things need to sacrifice and we don't want it to happen. Loving you is the happiest thing but having you not completely is a more than dying. Hayysssttt.

    All I can say about this wonderful song is, this is one the song that really show the meaning of true love. I really like the person behind the message of the song. I admire him/her for being just and fair to the one who really love. Letting go of is not easy but this song only prove us that when you really love someone and you feel that the best thing to do is to set him'her free you'll do it no matter what will be the output and no matter it will hurt you more.

    Leavin' someone you truly love is hard and painful especialy when the only reason is that he don't love you anymore and that he found someone and thought would be better than yours and still you have no choice but to give him up. Its hard, it hurts. But you have to accept it. Life must go on. Someday, somehow you will find someone who'd truly love you like the way you do. God knows who and whats the best for us, he want to chose someone who is better for us. We just get hurt for God's leads us to the better way.

    This song really touches my heart. I have loved a person who is commited to another girl. We started as bestfriend but later on we have been in love with each other to the point that she left her gf for me. But as time goes by she can't resist on texting nor meeting her ex but still I accept the fact that she does not love me that much because as of this moment she decided to be with her. This really hurts coz of all the things we shared she always tells me she really don't know the reason why she cannot chose me over her gf that hurts because she told me that I am the one that makes her happy, I am the one that makes her life complete but still she chose to break my heart for her gf sake. Iloveyou goodbye hon just take care of your self and hope that girl can love you more than iloveyou. Be missing you a lot.

    I love this song so much. I still remember him. But I need to say goodbye to you. Kc alam kung mali. Na minahal ko kita at minahal m ako. Pero mas mahalaga sakin mga anak natin. Kahit gano kita kamahal. Alam kung masakit para satin to say goodbye to each other. Pero ito ang tama, at dapat, bakit kailangan pang magmahal kung sana wala nlang to d sana d mahirap magdeside sa lahat ng bagay specialy puso. Hanggang ngaun ikaw parin iniisip ko. Kung pano ka. Masakit sakin pero mas masakit kung papatagalin pa.

    This song touched my heart so much. Love is so ironic. Why do we fall for someone we can never have. Why do we love someone who will never love us back. I've fallen for a guy whose heart is not mine. He was so nice and sweet that I thought someday there could us. I'm happy looking at him from afar. Now I've come to realize that no matter how you wish upon a star when the one you're wishing for wishes someone else. Yours will never come true. Now it's time for me to move on and live each day without him. Without seeing him. I can't say I'm letting him go coz I never had him. Perhaps the right words would be. I love you goodbye!.

    It's hard to love someone that you know you really can't have forever. Even though you tried everything to make it happen, things aren't always what they seemed. Loving him is very painful knowing that it will not be us in the end. There is someone out there waiting for him although he keeps on denying that he's not going back to her anymore. I know that deep inside, he will do what is right 'coz of his faith. I will miss you babe. I love you goodbye.

    The song just simply means letting go of someone you reaaly love and sacrificing evrything coz you know that wud be the ryt thing and you wont hurt a lot of people. Even though you know you wont be the one to share that love to the person you wud set him free to wer he wud be happy.
    Recently this song has been a part of my luvs story
    : I had this guy for 3 yrs and 9 months
    I thought we wud stay together for gud but then with just a snap of finger evrything changed. Evrything turned upside down. He got married to another woman. And I was deeply hurt.
    We never ended our relationship because we haven't talked and seen each other yet. But I guess I have to say gudbye coz now I'm not the one he wud need I am not the one hu wud hold him tyt now. And I know it will never work out.

    This song is mean alot of me. When my xbf left me cuz of someone. That's why now I'm hurting. Weve been together for 2 yrs. As a lovers. Start palang nang love story namin. Hindi talaga nya ako minahal. I love him but he love some else and that's her xgf. I love him more than anything in this world. I give all he wants but still he leave me alone and broken. I was really hurt. Somuch. An I can't forgive him until I die. Cuz when he hurt me I'm now already die.

    Sa akin amn, vice versa. Ung lalake na ung ayaw sa kin, he says na hindi nia kayang ibigai yung love na dapat ay para sa kin, he says na hindi xa deserving na maging first boyfriend ko, nanligaw xa. But by the time na I was rady to say yes. He said those words, it really hurts soo much! As in! I don't deserve him to be my first bf? But he did made me cry.
    I never cry for the wrong reason! This is absolutely stoopid! He made me believe that he loves me!

    This is not easy for me. Letting you go really breaks me! But I guess its the right thing to do. We're not meant for each other, you already have your own life and I have mine. Things wont work for us anymore, whatever we do, it tears us apart!. True, people come to our lives and then they go. But you, you'll always be a special part of me, of who iam. I love you so much, and I know you feel the same way. But this love is not for us. I really love you but this is goodbye!

    It's unfair. But in some chances- that's love. No matter how much you would like to hold on, fight for it, and understand it- some things and some love are never meant to grow. The hardest part of life is making decision. Coz you'll never know what will happen after few hurting words spoken, after tears from eyes has fell. Beware of Love- it might be the strangest thing you can have in life. I feel bad, for having people who love me for real but I have to let go- coz they are too good for me. Too good to be true on my part. Too good to be us. Forever dream till you wake up. It's love-- till Goodbye.

    Its really hard to say goodbye when you really want is to stay forever. But try to read this song seriously and you will know whats the message of this song.
    She wants to the love the guy, and stay forever with him but shes not the one for the guy and the guy needs, that why she chose to leave, instead of hurting herself knowing they will never meant to each other. Tnx for reading. Ahehe ♥♥♥.

You're such a wonderful gift and I will never forget the memories of us. I will keep it in my heart forever. I know I will never love this way again. You taught me how to be strong and to be loved. I love you. Sad to say but I guess this is the time to say goodbye. I love you. I love you so much!

    Know what? We just broke up. Grabe ang sakit! Ganun talaga siguro. People come and people go. Kelangan E. I really love him but I guess we're not really meant for each other so I just have to let him go. Even it breaks my heart into pieces. I know he really love me also. Alam ko rin na ayaw nya akong mawala, pero dahil un daw ang gusto ko(ang maghiwalay kami) hindi nya raw ipagkakait un. That's this song is for you. I love you so much. I'm so sorry. I love you, goodbye. : c

    My ex dedicated this song to me. I do understand the song but what I don't understand is how he immediately found a new relationship right after the break up. At first I fight for him. I cried every night, tried to call him, begging for him for another chance or a more descent explanation at least. Anyway I've been told that he is hanging out with someone else. I confronted him I let him chose between the two of us. He chose the girl but again he rationalized that it doesn't mean he loves me less. I'm not really sure but I think he chose the girl for distance had kept as apart. But then again, why have I been so faithful to him all this time? I hate him and sorry but I also hate this song. Because if a person truely love someone, then no matter what, love always prevails. When we're afraid of love we test it and every time we test our love we create doubt, doubt turns into anger and jealousy, and we begin to think of those things as love, love needs no test, everybody wins.
    He tested my love a lot of times and I don't think he deserves real hapiness.
