LYRIC FOR SALE

By Bob Golden

There will be trouble for me I know when you’re gone
I tried hard to stop you but your leaving will darken the dawn
Patterns of darkness have already started to creep
Into my mind where the memories of you I still keep
I’m still here beside you but already you’re turning away
For morning comes quickly when leaving is starting the day
I remember last summer we walked thru the woods hand in hand
And you never said nothing to me that I could understand
I thought at the time that you spoke so mysteriously
But I always assumed that the words you were saying were meant just for me
It’s so hard for me now to know that you’re leaving at dawn
For the rest of my like I’ll be wondering which plane you’re on
If only running and hiding were not ways to live
But staying here loving me leaving is not much to give
At last now the sun’s finally coming up low in the sky
And the light thru the curtain is falling there close where you lie
Once more please hold me and tell me it’s all a bad dream
That nothing’s as sad as it seems
Even tho your still going I can’t help but knowing the pain
And I wish that you’d left me the evening before in the rain
There will be trouble for me I know when you’re gone
