Saying Goodbye
I loved you before "I don't know when"
Was considered a romantic phrase
Long before Forget-me-nots
Could claim their beautiful name
Forgive this moment of weakness
You probably like your girls strong
But each time I think of you
I feel I'm doing something wrong
Feeling this sorrowful
Is most likely a crime
But even as I'm saying this
Your heart is breaking mine
I guess I'd better pack my things
And leave this lovely place
But I really must beg you, please,
Not to look at my face
So you just keep away from me
Just leave things as they are
Maybe you'll remember
You were always my shining star
For oh so long I couldn't feel
Because I was waiting for you
And if I am to revert to emptiness
I just don't know what to do
As we are saying goodbye
I'm preying for time to stand still
And if you'd only look at me
You'd see my tears are real
And now that I know it all meant nothing
To an angel who's light was too dim
I can finally move in the right direction
To try and forget about him
