Lover Goodbye



Lover goodbye, it burns to bring these words to fruition 
But damn, lover, I've tried and even when I get you to listen..
You never seem to hear the words I say...so
Goodbye, Lover, Goodbye.

Afraid to ask why don't love me... afraid of your reply 
Afraid you won't say "Of course I do"-afraid you'll tell me why... 
That's why I have to say...
Goodbye, Lover, Goodbye

All the pleas in the world
would not happy boy make
If you've made up your mind
that's the truth I must take
but, before you throw your stones, 
I just have to say...

I kissed you in your sleep last night, upon your cheek last night
you looked so peaceful lying there with my son by your side
Now it's hard to imagine, about what we would fight..
So Goodbye, Lover, Goodbye...
