Goodbyes

by Mandy Lou   Jun 27, 2005


I'm not like them
I won't cry
Not even when
It's time to say goodbye

We've had these years
Friends and boyfriends
Yet now it is time
For it to come to an end

We'll never stop talking
We promise and say
"I won't forget you
Not even for a day"

The year came
And the year left me
I didn't even see it
It went so quickly

I'm not like them
I won't cry much
Not even when
We give the last hugs

I know what you're thinking
That maybe I'm crying
But, I promise I swear
I'm really not crying

There's no reason to
No reason for a tear
I mean, after all
We'll see each other next year

But as the days go on
I soon realize
That maybe the truth
Was right before my eyes

I couldn't see it
Or maybe didn't want to
I just never realized
How fast this year flew

Now we're down to one last week
Just one more with laughs
I don't want to see
These memories turn to ash

Try very often
To think of me
Please do not forget
All of these memories

Alright I lied
I really am crying
But, on the inside
My heart's started smiling

Happy memories
I hold inside
Tell me to smile
For you're right by my side

You'll be with me
Forever and always
You're in my thoughts
And there you will stay
