goodbye
lyrics & music by peter c marinari 4.8.0
you hide so well between those little white lines, and i can't find you
half the time when we're face to face/
your bags all packed and your ready to roll, your rolling away, why
couldn't we find a place why can't we find a way/
i thought i knew you so well, but it was my mistake i was staring at
your pretty shell, that pretty shell//
reason works on reasonable ears you have your quirks and they are my
fears now/
i am hanging on by my teeth and fingertips/ you are racing away got your
finger pressed up to your lips/
but i've got something to say//
don't say goobye/ bright white eyes, small little lies, and the ties that bind us, and the ties that bind us, and your little white lines, your little white lines/ /
you know when you speak you don't say anything to me, and i try to listen if
just to hear your voice, to hear you drifting away/
i know that feeling, you're trapped inside yourself, i wish i could help you, but it's all selfish/ cause i just want you back//
don't say goobye/ bright white eyes, small little lies, and the ties that bind us, and the ties that bind us, and your little white lines, your little white lines/ /
i tell this story everyday to myself,
i am looking for the happy end before i put you back on the shelf/
i said i loved you a little to late,
i missed my chance, you're dancing with fate/
it will take you away it will take you away/
don't say goobye/ bright white eyes, small little lies, and the ties that bind us, and the ties that bind us, and your little white lines, your little white lines/ /
