Lyrics
Jack: ''It’s my happy ending, now it’s time to say goodnight. We can stop pretending, tell the spotlight man turn off my light''.

''Cause the show is done now, and it’s time to leave the stage. Yea! The good guy won now and the band has no more songs to play. It’s a happy ending so I’ll say. ''

''Goodbye, goodbye to all the make-believe. Goodbye, there’s no more magic up my sleeve. There’s nothing left to act up here, I’ll take my bow and disappear. ''

''No questions left for answering. There’s only one word left to sing, Goodbye. ''

''It’s a happy ending, to the greatest show on earth. Now the curtains descending and I hope you got your money’s worth. ''

''Gonna stop the show now cause I wanna leave on top. So get up and go now. Cause there’s nothing left inside my head. Everything that left to says been said… ''

''Goodbye, goodbye to all the song and dance. Goodbye, off stage I stand a better chance. The show is through the parts been played, no standing in the wings afraid. ''

''No violins or phony tears, the word that’s music to my ears is goodbye. Well, goodbye, goodbye, GOODBYE!! ''

''I’m not afraid of stopping; this end could be my start, I wanna live a life and not just play a part. I’ll walk into the sunset, I'll sail across the sea, the final word the last you’ll hear of me, of me is goodbye. ''

''Goodbye to every night alone. Goodbye, goodbye to lives I don’t own. I’m tired of living on the stage, of life that’s only on the page. ''

''The empty lies are in the past, I’ve tried before but here’s the last goodbye. Now goodbye, Goodbye, GOODBYE!''
