We Only Say Goodbye

today was the end of a dream

as I watched your shadow disappear

another moment for the memory

as we lose another year

thought I heard You call my name

but YOU only said goodbye

always somewhere we only say goodbye

going nowhere

we only say goodbye

there's never time to say

all the things we need to say

when it's too late

we can only say goodbye

tonight I felt your presence again

as we shared the sorrow we've always known

but I heard the distance in your voice

and I knew I was alone

tried to tell YOU my deepest thoughts

but I only said goodbye

always somewhere we only say goodbye

going nowhere

we only say goodbye

there's never time to say

all the things we need to say

when it's too late

we can only say goodbye

across the miles

both of us reaching we try

but it's so hard to touch

when we only say goodbye

always somewhere

we only say goodbye

going nowhere

we only say goodbye

there's never time to say

all the things we need to say

when it's too late

we can only say goodbye

always somewhere

we only say goodbye

going nowhere

we only say goodbye

there's never time to say

all the things we need to say...
