So Long and Goodbye

What can I do 

What can I say 

I knew we were through

On that winter day.

–

Our love has long gone 

For the both of us 

From day one we were wrong

I guess we missed our bus.

–

There were no goodbyes 

No fond farewells spoken

We did our separate cries

Since we were irreparably broken.

–

Innocent others 

got caught up in our mess

Children, sisters, and brothers

Were hurt, I confess.

–

They didn’t understand 

That she and I were wrong

The ending was at hand 

The end of our song.

–

Breakups are messy things

We go our separate ways 

Feeling all of those stings 

Which go one for days.

–

Thinking of a better tomorrow

Is all that we can do

After we clear the sorrow 

And new things come into view.

–

So anyone who’s hurting

Needn’t worry about the past

One day all get their deserving

When all is done and passed…
