I CANNOT SAY GOODBYE
No matter which way or why
I drive through the city
Feeling such pity
With tears in these eyes
Pitiful, painful
How cruel is a goodbye
When I cannot say goodbye
I still feel your pounding heart
The throbbing ache that’ll never depart
The passions we felt
The sensual sensations
Your body heats still a beat away
Yet I cannot keep away
I want to turn this car around
Screeching tires
Slipping and sliding in the mires
The blinding lights
Can this be right?
Hands gripping tight
Stomach in flight
Stomach so tight
The gears shifting
My mind lifting
How could I say goodbye
When all I could see was there in your eyes
The wipers wiping
My vision is clearing
The smearing, streaking
Disappearing
I see a vision of beauty
Your beauty
Your love
Your heart
Your soul
All there, here
Right here, right now!
Careering, tearing
Back to you!
