goodbye

Will you suddenly be on my doorstep?
And the smile in your eyes be so warm
Will the sound of your laughter surprise me?
Will you fold me into your soft arms?
As your face slowly blurs in my daydreams
All that is left that is real
Are the memories of your sweet attention
And all of the love that I feel
Will you be home when I come to see you
And tell me the stories of life?
Will the passion ring out of your wisdom
And flood into rooms filled with light?
But your windows are dark and desserted
The hallway still whispers your name
What remains is your fire and conviction
And I will not find life the same
Goodbye… goodbye
I remember the last time I saw you
Your hand that reached out a farewell
Then your face turned away to the window
Reality had broken the spell
You were already gone on your journey
That’s when I had to let go
But I hold you inside of my heart now
And love you with all of my soul
Yes I love you with all of my soul
Goodbye… goodbye
