This Goodbye
copyright 2005 by Bobby Lightfoot/boatsongs/all rights reserved

This goodbye
Harder than the ones before
Because it comes from my heart?

This goodbye
Just enough to make me cry
Because it comes from my heart?

For all these years I?ve burned for you
And now I?ve burned myself right out

And it?s hard to say
The words get in the way?
Of this goodbye?

Every day
Waiting for the birds to sing
For the rain to roll through ?

This goodbye
Like a dream you wish away at night
Like a stone in your shoe?

And all these years I?ve burned for you
You see, I?ve burned myself right out?

And it?s hard to say
The words get in the way?
Of this
Goodbye?

And ain?t there just a million stars tonight?
Must I bid farewell to every distant light?

And it?s hard to say
The words get in the way?
Of this goodbye?
