Goodbye

It's so hard to let go

of this wheel that is spinning;

So afraid of the fall;

So afraid of the sinning;

So afraid of the pain

and the look in your eye;

So afraid of the heartache

when I tell you goodbye.

I don't want to hurt you,

don't want to make you cry;

I would never want to desert you,

but I can no longer live this lie.

We've loved and we've laughed

more than some that I know,

but our season has passed, my love;

It's time for me to go.

I only want your happiness,

and it is me that is holding you back;

Take my love with you to make up

for the love that you lack.

And one day soon, this I know...

love will open its door;

You will remember me with a bittersweet smile

and I could not ask for more

of this wheel that is spinning;

So afraid of the fall;

So afraid of the sinning;

So afraid of the pain

and the look in your eye;

So afraid of the heartache;

I love you...goodbye.
