LYRIC FOR SALE

By Zenitha

In my childhood's simple days,
I sang a song, in clear, pure ways.
Goodbye, goodbye, with longing inside,
Dreams echoed far, from where they hide.

(Chorus)
Goodbye, goodbye, I long for the past,
For who I was, the shadow I cast.
Every choice, every road I roam,
Leads me back to the place called home.

Life’s winds blew, and took me far,
From dreams of youth to where we are.
I’ve tasted the lessons, both bitter and sweet,
Lost myself in the paths at my feet.

Goodbye, goodbye, I long to be,
The truest form of the old, young me.
Each bridge I burned, each step I’ve known,
Carries me back to my heart’s true home.

In love’s embrace and doubt’s cold hand,
I searched for myself in this strange land.
People came and people went,
But my heart’s song stayed silent, unsent.

Through family’s changes, I’ve come to see,
Love wears many faces, it’s not just me.
Separation’s pain taught me to grow,
Understanding the love I now know.

Goodbye, goodbye, I long for the day,
When family’s warmth won't fade away.
Through every laugh and tear that falls,
I’m called back home where true love calls.

Now I stand tall, stronger than then,
With friends beside me, through thick and thin.
The song I sang as a child before,
Now carries my heart’s deepest core.

Goodbye, goodbye, I’m on my way,
To find the peace that’s here to stay.
Every step I take, brave and true,
My heart sings, goodbye, I’ll find you.
