WHY OH WHY?
Must this be the worst goodbye?
When all I needed is you by my side
You’ve torn this love apart
Why oh why?
Why oh why?
You walked out of the door
Not wanting any more
You said
“I’ve had
enough”
“Cannot take anymore”
“You’ve changed”
“The passion has gone”
“Your passions have changed”
“You have a different fire”
“I know, but it’s for us”
“It’s yours; it takes you to
different places, places I do not like”
“Talk, talk to me don’t walk
away”
My heart is bleeding, bleeding
Wanting and needing
For you not to leave
You have been here at the beginning
We’ve both been there from the beginning
Please, please do not say goodbye
We had plans
We had dreams
Dreams that gleamed
But you’d rather they now be flippant
Flippant with a wave of your hand
Buried in the deep, deep sand
So, so sad
That you are saying goodbye
