A way to say goodbye

You’re weary and waiting for answers that will not replace me
Oh young child, don’t take it on yourself!
Let the silence fill the gaps left by someone else
Close your eyes
Fall back to sleep
Now I wonder free, free

Now I must go
Please don’t follow

I miss the lonesomeness I miss
Shouldn’t it be easy
I miss the lonesomeness I miss
Letting love be free
I miss the lonesomeness I miss
But we could never please
I miss the lonesomeness I miss
The overriding greed

I stare at the lights to keep my mind from wondering to you
All my life I looked for things I can undo
Feel the moments they fall in-between you and me
So unkind to still haunt my dreams
Now I wander free, free

Now I must go
Please don’t follow

I miss the lonesomeness I miss
Shouldn’t it be easy
I miss the lonesomeness I miss
Letting love be free
I miss the lonesomeness I miss
I’ve tried so long to find
I miss the lonesomeness I miss
A way to say goodbye
I miss the lonesomeness I miss

Now I must go
I miss the lonesomeness I miss
Please don’t follow
I miss the lonesomeness I miss

You were never mine
Now I must go
I'm sailing past the times
Please don’t follow

I’ve tried so long to find
A way to say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
