| Why Say Goodbye? |
| Why say goodbye? Why turn away? Why say we won't see eachother; after this day? Why do you frown? Why shed a tear? Why do you bow your head, as if in fear? Why that hurt look in your eyes? Why that look on your face? Why do you feel; as if this is the last place? Why all the sorrow? Why all the pain? Why all the sadness? Why again? Goodbyes are not forever They are not the last word They are just something to say Something to be heard They are a continuation A forwarding of what is to begin, A promise, a hope Not something to condemn Goodbyes should not bring torture, torment or dispair Feeling of comfort and patience should instead be presented there. This is not the end. This is not our last chance For in this thing we call life, It is only one dance. So I say once more, Why say goodbye? To end this way, to make it final, Why even then??? |
| For You |
| I dream of us laying in a field of green With the sun shining and lighting our scene You are so beautiful and fruitful this day And forever in this place with you I would stay I look onto you as you gaze onto the horizon You have a look that is all so suprising A look of gratification In this place you have found peace in its strangeness The two of us alone in a scene so tranquil It is what I wanted, my hopes fulfilled I turn to you and tell you how I feel But you press your fingers to my lips Keeping my words at bay, so the words I skip Just to see you here brings a tear to ease It must not end, we must not leave Here with you is where I stay But the other world is true; no dream; no fake So I close my eyes and take in a breath I have made my choice and it was to death A dream has to end sometime I believe And death is forever, it would not allow me to leave So today I will live in a world that has you Keeping in mind the dream I've seen to make it true In hopes that one day I could recreate it with you The vision of you and I together again, Gives me inspiration, motivation, and a place to begin. |
