Goodbye


Another face, Another day

Why’d you have to be so far away?,

The endless nights of cuts and cries,

The little girl slowly dies,

Forbidden lover take her hand,

Guide her to the light,

This tear stained dove,

Yearns high above,

Ready to take the next flight,

Please don’t go, I love you so,

Cried the broken man,

I know you do and I you,

But we will meet again,

I cannot wait,

Is it too late?,

I’m afraid so my sun,

My dearest moon I’ll see you soon,

Across the dark blue sky.
