Didn't Want To Say Goodbye
Appears on: Story After Story
In a room
draped in blue
I am thinking of you
I am tired, I can't sleep
And for you I will weep
In a flash you are gone
Yet around me life is calm
I can not understand
is this part of the plan
I get cards and bouquets
But they can't take your place
I have dreams about us
But I always wake up
I can ask all I please
I can beg down on my knees
For a reason, for a sign
But these answers I won't find
And I will weep
Can you hear me
Can't you tell me why?
I'll go on without you
And
what's left for me to do
But to stay where I am
In my world of pretend
And I won't know until I die
If my faith was but a lie
'Til then you'll here it in my cry
I didn't want to say goodbye to you
