Our Long Goodbyes
Hiding in the summer breeze with you
Letting it take us where it will
Running in the night under the stars
Bare feet across the warm grass
Until we lay in the still holding hands
Afraid to let go
Not wanting you to get away from me
And then that breeze caught your hair
Playing with it in the wind
A backdrop to your beautiful eyes
Hiding your beautiful lies
Camouflaged by your beautiful smile
And I still miss the taste of that smile
But I wont let you take me where you will
Your lingering goodbyes still kill
They still pull at my heart
And they are still tearing me apart
The memories of who we were
And the reality of who you made me
More then I used to be
But before you took it back again
And its not how it was back then
And I will always keep a summer night for you
I’ll run in the breeze with the thoughts of you
And remember your smile and its taste
One that now tastes of other peoples lips
And the stars that played in your eyes
And ill forget the lies
Just to be with you awhile
To feel your smile
And look in your eyes
Forgetting the long goodbyes
Forgetting our goodbye
