Someone said they'd seen you buy a suitcase |
|
I think that I know why |
|
You've been packing all your life into its wrappings |
|
And saying your goodbyes |
|
After waiting half the morning I hear footsteps |
|
I thought you'd never come |
|
Now you tell me that you're leaving in the morning |
|
Tonight will be the last we will have |
|
Night has a way of getting colder |
|
Morning has come and I can't hold her |
|
Any more |
|
She will go today |
|
Now that night has taken time into its keeping |
|
And thrown it in my face |
|
We just lie here in the darkness counting seconds |
|
And pack them in your case |
|
I have given everything I had to give you |
|
I'd give it all again |
|
But I think the time has come for you to leave me |
|
Tonight has been the last we will have |
|
Night has a way of getting colder |
|
Morning has come and I can't hold her anymore |
|
She will go today |
