[Verse 1]
Wake up, blood-shot eye
Struggle to memorize
The way it felt between your thighs
Pleasure that made you cry
It feels so good to be bad
Not worth the aftermath, after that, after that
Try to get you back

[Pre-Chorus]
I still don't have a reason (reason)
And you don't have the time (time)
And it really makes me wonder if I ever gave a fuck about you and I

[Chorus]
So this is goodbye
Is this the end of you and I?
So this is goodbye
Is this the end of you and I?
So this is goodbye

[Verse 2]
Can't stop my spinning head
Decisions that made my bed
Now I must lay in it
And deal with things I've left unsaid
I want to dive into you
Forget what you're going through
I get behind, make your move
Forget about the truth

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I still don't have a reason
And you don't have the time
And it really makes me wonder if I ever gave a fuck about you and I

[Chorus]
So this is goodbye
Is this the end of you and I?
So this is goodbye
Lying to my lovers eyes
So this is goodbye

[Bridge]
I've been here before
One day I'll wake up and it won't hurt anymore (Ho-oh-oh-oh)
You caught me in a lie (Ho-oh)
I have no alibi (Ho-oh)
The words you say don't have a meaning (Ho-oh-oh-oh)

[Pre-Chorus 2]
'Cause I still don't have a reason
And you don't have the time
And it really makes me wonder if I ever gave a fuck about you and I
And so this is goodbye

[Chorus]
Is this the end of you and I?
So this is goodbye
Lying to my lovers eyes
So this is goodbye

[Breakdown]
Oh-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh
Ho-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh, say goodbye

Maroon 5 is an American pop rock band. They were originally formed in 1994 as Kara’s Flowers while they were still attending high school. They signed to Reprise Records and released an album, The Fourth World, in 1997. After a mediocre response to the album, the band parted with their record label and attended college, but in 2001, the band regrouped, added James Valentine to the lineup, and pursued a new direction under the name Maroon 5.

Their first big hit came in the form of “Harder to Breathe,” the edgier lead single from their debut, Songs About Jane. The continued success of that song and other singles “This Love,” “She Will Be Loved,” and “Sunday Morning” cemented the quintet as a pop-rock band to keep an eye out for.

However, for their second album, It Won’t Be Soon Before Long, they switched to ambing up on slick pop production—and it worked for them. Lead single “Makes Me Wonder” jumped 63 places in one week to reach number one, becoming their first ever #1 single.
