Lyrics
After You've Said Goodbye
c. Glen King
1st.verse:
Dust kicking off your tires
Taillights fading to dots
Words I should've been speaking
Got me tied up in knots
If ever a fool needed scolding
This would be the day
For standing around and watching
While you drove your love away:
Verse:
What Can I Say
After You've Said Goodbye
Anything now
Would seem like a des'prate lie,
Should've told you I Love you
Before the embers died
What Can I Say
After You've Said Goodbye.
2nd. Verse:
Clock ticking off the minutes
Drum beats rocking my head
Sonnets come to my rescue
Like Shakespeare back from the dead,
If only I'd turned these feelings
Into spoken lines
I wouldn't be silently screaming
Please come back a thousand times:
Chorus:
What Can I Say
After You've Said Goodbye
Anything now
Would seem like a des'prate lie,
Should've told you I Love you
Long before the embers died
What Can I Say
After You've Said Goodbye.
Bridge:
Should've been listening
To the spaces in between
Our midnight conversations,
Guess I should've heard
Your sad heart breaking
When you ran out of patience
Now,
Chorus: Repeat.
