Just Before Goodbye by Nina Nesbitt

You got new jeans
The hood is not gone
I'm in the new dress that I've (1)__________ worn
And I could have sworn

You didn't bat an eye when I walked

Just before goodbye
You had the chance to change your mind
Just before you lied saying
You gave (2)________ your best try
It's not (3)____________ to try
You have to give (4)________ blood and tears and time
You had one last chance to change your mind
Just before goodbye

A piece of shattered glass
'Cause something so beautiful

Just before goodbye
You had the chance to change your mind
Just before you lied saying
You gave (6)________ your best try
It's not enough to try
You have to give your blood and (7)__________ and time
Take the world of hurt inside
You had one last chance to change your mind
Just before goodbye

Just before goodbye
You had the (8)____________ to change your mind
And just before you lied saying
You gave this your best try
It's not enough to try
You have to give your blood and tears and time
Take the world of hurt inside
You had one last chance to change your mind
Just before goodbye
Before goodbye
Before goodbye
