When Goodbye Was A Word

Stars would shine on stormy nights
Flowers grew in winter time
Everything seemed possible
When we were in love
When forever was
What other people lost
This lonesome valley was
What other people crossed
No. I couldn’t taste
The tears other people shed
When goodbye was
A word other people said
Rivers flowed
A bridge would burn
And nights would end
The earth still turns
Yesterday is just
A song to sing
In the world we knew
When forever was
What other people lost
This lonesome valley was
What other people crossed
No. I couldn’t taste
The tears other people shed
When goodbye was
A word other people said
When goodbye was
A word other people said…
