we crossed our hearts and hoped to die we kissed a girl and wondered why we spent a hundred nights awake and talked of all the hearts we d break i said and did all i could do except to say goodbye to you so i say that i ll miss you in the places we would go say how i wish that you could know and say that i despise the lie that says the last word is goodbye and say that jesus died to show that love the love we know will always say hello the love you spent throughout your days has multiplied in many ways our broken hearts afraid to live are mending finding love to give and god who gladly gave us you is sending us to say the truth so i say that i ll miss you in the places we would go say oh i wish that you could know and say that i despise the lie that says the last word is goodbye say that jesus died to show that love the love we know will always say hello there s got to be more time than this there has to be another place where all the love you ll ever ever miss is given by the father s grace and i say that i ll miss you in the places we would go say oh i wish that you could know say that i despise the lie that says the last word is goodbye and i say that jesus died to show that love oh don t we know will always say hello and i say that jesus died to show that love oh don t we know will always say hello
