Lyrics
GOODBYE
Lyrics by Michael Shrieve
DAY AFTER DAY
I SEE YOUR FACE
I CALL OUT YOUR NAME
BUT YOU?RE NEVER THERE
AND THOUGH OUR LOVE
HAS SWEET MEMORIES
I NEVER KNEW THAT I WOULD
HAVE TO SAY GOODBYE
TAKING A WALK
ALONG THE SHORE
AND LAUGHING ABOUT
SOMETHING YOU SAID BEFORE
WATCHING THE MOON AS IT SHINES ABOVE
THESE ARE THE THINGS WE USED LOVE
AND THOUGH OUR LOVE HAS SWEET MEMORIES
I NEVER KNEW THAT IT?S SO HARD
TO SAY GOODBYE
TIME AFTER TIME
I WAKE AT NIGHT
I REACH FOR YOUR HAND
TO MAKE IT ALL RIGHT
WHEN MORNING COMES
I CAN HEAR THE BIRDS
SINGING YOUR SONG
BUT YOU ARE GONE
AND THOUGH OUR LOVE
HAS SWEET MEMORIES
I NEVER KNEW THAT ONE DAY
I?D HAVE TO SAY GOODBYE
