Saying Goodbye

from A Different Country by Lilac Sheer

	/

lyrics

I
Am saying goodbye
To all that I used to know

And you, you know what to say
To make me feel safe
Like you're gonna be with me all the way

And baby if you're leaving
Then why are you deceiving?
And if you are deceiving
Then why am I forgiving
Every time you leave?

All that I wanted
Was to turn back time
All that I needed
Was the touch of your hand
All that I wanted
Was to turn back time
So I could be with you again
But all that I needed
Doesn't matter now

You see I
Am saying goodbye
But you never told me why

How could you just walk away
And leave me astray
When I gave you all that I had to give?

And baby if you're leaving
Then why are you deceiving?
And why am I still calling out your name?
And if you are deceiving
Then why am I forgiving you
Every time you leave me?

Why now?

All that I wanted
Was to turn back time
So I could be with you again
And all that I needed
Was the touch of your hand
And I only wanted
To believe in a time
When you would have loved me again
But that doesn't matter
It's all over now
And I don't know how

Or why
But I'll say goodbye
Now that my tears are dry
Never mind
