Predict
Look at the title. Why do you think the singer is saying goodbye? Brainstorm and write different reasons in the box below.
 
Part 1: Listen to the first part of the song and type the missing words.
Your heart is not open   so I must go

The spell has been broken , I loved you so

Freedom   comes when you learn to let go

Creation comes when you learn to say no

You were my lesson I had to learn

I was your fortress you had to burn

Pain is a warning that something's wrong

I pray to God that it won't be long

Do you wanna go higher?
 
Part 2: Listen to this part of the song and select the words you hear.

There's nothing left to

There's no place left to

There's no   power

Than the power of good-bye

CHORUS

There's nothing left to

There's no more heart to

There's no  power

Than the power of good-bye

Learn to say good-bye

I   to say good-bye
