Lullabies and Sad Goodbyes.

Looking back at old notes and cards,
Anything that’ll bring back those scars
Each day my love would grow, I couldn’t let you go,
So much behind my smile that I just wouldn’t show
Still dreaming of us together, of how its meant to be
All that you are will remain a silent part of me.

Whenever I look at you I can’t look away,
Don’t know what it is, but it made me wanna stay
I need to see if you still have that look in your eye,
The one you wore before we said our goodbyes
It’s the same old story, everyone will know
One hearts holding on, the others letting go…

Don’t cry for what might have been, don’t live in the past,
It was supposed to be forever, but forever never lasts.
Cos’ every dream I’d ever had, had suddenly come true,
Everything I’ve ever wanted, I found it all in you.
But this dream was nothing but a cruel joke,
Played by the crushed heart he doesn’t know he broke.

Whenever I look at you I can’t look away,
Don’t know what it is, but it made me wanna stay
I need to see if you still have that look in you eye,
The one you wore before we said our goodbyes
It’s the same old story, everyone will know
One hearts holding on, the others letting go…

Now I’m full of this pain that no one can see
At night I keep thinking of what’ll never be…
Whenever I look at you I can’t look away,
Don’t know what it is, but it forced me to stay
I need to see if you still have that look in you eye,
The one before you said your goodbye
It’s the same old story, everyone will know
One heart holding on, the other letting go…

When we were together nothing else mattered,
Now we’re apart and it’s all been shattered
The memory of what it used to be,
Of me with you, and you with me,
Loved you more than those pretty green eyes could see.

Looking at the girl in the mirror,
There’s a story behind her eyes,
Full of Lullabies and sad goodbyes…
