Goodbye Again

Goodbye Again

It's five o'clock this morning and the sun is on the rise.

There's frosting on the windowpane and sorrow in your eyes

The stars are fading quietly the night is nearly gone

And so you turn away from me and tears begin to come

Chorus

And it's goodbye again I'm sorry to be leaving you.

Goodbye again as if you didn't know

It's goodbye again and I wish you could tell me

Why do we always fight when I have to go

It seems a shame to leave you now the days are soft and warm

I long to lay me down again and hold you in my arms

I long to kiss your tears away and give you back your smile.

But other voices beckon me so for a little

Chorus

I have to go and see some friends of mine and some that I don't know

and some who aren't familiar with my name.

It's something that's inside of me not hard to understand

It's anyone who'll listen to me sing

So if your hours are empty now who am I to blame

You think if I were always here our love would be the same

As it is the time we have is worth the time alone

And lying by your side's the greatest peace I've ever known

Chorus
