You and I say goodbye

Why can’t I be with you?

What did I do wrong?

2 years, 5 months, 14 days meant nothing?

Remember the summer we made love on the beach?

Remember when we climbed the Sierra Nevada mountains?

Remember the day you proposed?

And you’re telling me that meant nothing??

Tears slowly make their way down my cheeks

My hand is shaking, my mouth dry, my heart aching

Do you know what heart ache is?

Well I certainly do

I realised it when you forgot the precious memories, threw the pearl necklace away, and said goodbye

I sit here in the darkness, in the rain,

My heart cold and gloomy as a tomb

The rain cascading from the sky is a symbol of pain

So don’t come back

Don’t come back at all

Because you and I are saying goodbye
