Ever since that first night when I gave my love to you.
Everything seemed so right,
you were my sunlight shining through.
And I tried so not to let it show,
yet it seems sad because I know.
It seems sad because I know.
No matter how hard I try.
No matter how hard I try.
There's always goodbye.
Softly as you leave my bed,
and I tightly hold your hand.
You lean down to kiss my head,
but there's nothing to be said.
And if you said
you wanna sing,
I know you'd soon be on your way.
No matter how hard we try.
No matter how hard we try.
There's always goodbye.
So here we stand,
you and I. You are too kind and I'm too shy.
To say what we really mean.
So we make life a masquerade.
Never showing off, only the parts we play.
No matter how hard I try.
No matter how hard I try.
There's always goodbye.
No matter how hard I try.
No matter how hard I try.
There's always goodbye.
