Goodbye
She's had enough of my clever lines
Thinking back on all those times
When my dreams were just a story
She... wonders if anything's real
Does he just write or can he feel
And care for anything more than glory
Oh.. Time and time again
You bought in to what felt like lies
But girl, I was honest with you
I didn't even try to disguise
You needed more than lyrics
I understand you wanted a man
A true love and not a writer who
Would hold a pen but not your hand
So you said, Goodbye..
The saddest words I've ever read
Cuts like a knife I'm running red
No yellow brick road for me to tread
And now it's so plain for me to see
You felt this is how it had to be..
The end
She.. Felt like another in the crowd
Echoes abounding seemed so loud
Couldn't see they were simply songs
She.. Had enough and let me know
She wasn't up for my kind of show
There'd just been one too many wrongs
Oh.. Time and time again
You bought in to what felt like lies
But girl, I was honest with you
I didn't even try to disguise
You needed more than lyrics
I understand you wanted a man
A love true and not a writer who
Would hold a pen but not your hand
So it's, Goodbye..
The saddest words I've ever read
Cuts like a knife I'm running red
No yellow brick road for me to tread
And now it's plain for me to see
You felt this is how it had to be..
The End
Goodbye,
This hurt inside me is very real
If you only knew how much I feel
You needed more than I could deal
And now it's plain for me to see
God, I wish it didn't have to be..
The End
Tonight, I don't see one star in the sky
Tears trickle down.. I begin to cry
I don't have to ask the reasons why
I sadly understand it's.. Goodbye
Oh, Goodbye..
The saddest words I've ever read
Cuts like a knife I'm running red
No yellow brick road for me to tread
And now it's plain for me to see
You felt this is how it had to be..
The End
Goodbye,
This hurt inside me is very real
If you only knew how much I feel
You needed more than I could deal
And now it's plain for me to see
God, I wish it didn't have to be..
The End..
Goodbye
(Goodbye)
(Goodbye)

Note: This is one of my favorite writes. A story of a guy crazy for a girl and the only thing he loves more is the magic of writing lyrics. The pen is too euphoric to set down.. so he loses the hand of the girl he loves. He may trurly adore her MORE than any other woman in the world. But she know's she'll always be backup to his pad and pen. So the writer knows it's goodbye!
