“Say Goodbye”
written and composed by : Emily Jones (c)2006 / inspired in part by the poem “face the sorrow” by friend George Kenkelen (album : Dragonbait)

i can’t believe it came to this
there’s nothing i can do
a tear has ripped its way inside
too many emotions collide

it sickens me to go like this
to leave you here alone
i see the sadness in your eyes
they’re mirrors of my own

chorus:

how will i find the closure
that i know i need inside?
didn’t take the time to tell you
what i really feel inside … too hard to say goodbye
seems that was only yesterday
today we face the sorrow
the ache we’re feeling now
please let it die tomorrow, face the sorrow

my days were filled with thoughts of you
but now they’ve turned to pain
though i feel you linger near
your face begins to fade

now everywhere i turn to look
each street takes me away
the memories reminding me
of all i didn’t say

-chorus
