River Cain – Start With Goodbye (Official Audio)

Lead track from the upcoming album “Songs for the Other Side” "Start With Goodbye" is the beginning of the end - or the end of the beginning. In this cinematic indie-folk ballad, River Cain reflects on how letting go can sometimes be the first step toward becoming whole. Featuring heartfelt vocals, the track sets the emotional tone for an album written from the far side of healing. Lyrics & Credits below LYRICS: You walked in like a promise But you left like a storm I didn’t know it then But you were the door I used to think love was the start Of something we could build Now I know sometimes It’s just the spark before it stills I held on like it owed me more But now I see what all that ache was for [Chorus] Maybe we start with goodbye To find the truth in our eyes Maybe breaking’s how we learn What not to carry next time You were a chapter, not the whole You left a mark, but I kept my soul Now I’m moving past that old lie Yeah, maybe we start with goodbye I see you in old songs In streets I don’t walk But I don’t pause anymore I just nod at the thought No hate, no fire, no regret Just a lesson I won’t forget [Chorus] Maybe we start with goodbye So we don’t forget to try To let go before the weight Turns love into bitter hate You were a moment, not the end Not a loss I need to mend I’m still learning how to fly But maybe we start with goodbye [Bridge] You were the crack that let me feel. The hurt, the truth, the way to heal. [Chorus] Yeah, maybe we start with goodbye To make space for the sky Maybe the fall is the prize It shows us how to rise You were a shadow on my shore But I don’t need you anymore This ain’t bitter, but I can't deny That maybe we start Yeah, maybe we start With goodbye Start with goodbye... Start with goodbye...
