(emerson - lake) |
|
I've tried to mend |
|
The love that ended |
|
Long ago although we still pretend |
|
Our love is surely coming to an end |
|
Don't waste the time you've got to love again |
|
We tried to lie |
|
But you and i |
|
Know better than to let each other lie |
|
The thought of lying to you makes me cry |
|
Counting up the time that's passed us by |
|
I've sent this letter hoping it will reach your hand |
|
And if it does i hope that you will understand |
|
That i must leave in a while |
|
And though i smile |
|
You know the smile is only there to hide |
|
What i'm really feeling deep inside |
|
Just a face where i can hang my pride |
|
Goodbye... |
|
Goodbye... |
|
We'll talk of places that we went |
|
And times that we have spent |
|
Together penniless and free |
|
You'll see the day another way |
|
And they could put the sunshine |
|
For a nighttime where you lay |
|
You're love began i don't know when |
|
But if you do i know that |
|
You'll be happy in the end |
