Goodbye

by Pain Remains   Feb 12, 2007


I don't know what's happening,
I don't know what's wrong,
You've been the only man I've loved,
The only man I've thought of for so long,

You tease my heart,
Lead me on,
Then with a blink of an eye,
You're suddenly gone,

I just can't handle it,
I just can't take the pain,
But I let you do it before,
So am I the one to blame?

I know what you're like,
I've known all along,
And yet you can still melt my heart,
When you sing one of your songs,

You sit in the pub,
And you play your guitar,
And you're completely unaware,
That I'm admiring you from afar,

You sing with feeling,
I feel it in your eyes,
But you don't see my heart bleeding,
Or it's wailing cries,

I've sat in the pub,
Laughing with the guys,
But when I've looked across at you,
I've seen the pain in your eyes,

You pretend to be happy,
Life's as good as it could be,
You can lie to them,
But you can't fool me,

I know you're in pain,
I'm in pain too,
But let me show you,
What the power of love can do,

I hear it's magical,
And I want to see,
If the power of love,
Can heal both you and me,

I love you so much,
You know this is true,
And I don't want anyone else,
As no one else is you,

You've been hurt before,
The pain was too much to bare,
So falling in love again,
Gives you a scare,

But I'm not here to hurt you,
That's not what I intend to do,
I just want a chance to show,
That my love for you is true,

You draw me close,
Then push me away,
Which finally means,
My love can't stay,

I#ll keep it hidden,
I won't let it see,
What life would have been like,
Of you could have only let it be,

So I will sit in my room,
Trying hard not to cry,
As I stop myself texting you,
As I must say goodbye,

Goodbye to the only man I'e ever loved,
The only man I could be me,
I didn' have to put on a show,
The real me I let you see,

So farewell my darling,
This is my last goodbye,
And now as I walk away,
All I can do is cry.
