Don't Say Goodbye, Say Goodnight Lyrics
Binocular
Lyrics
I lie awake and feel your nearness
I never wanted more then this
I don't wanna run beneath your tears
I don't wanna catch them when they're falling
But it's the same old song playin' over and over
Now I lie upon my face; Though we try
I guess that's the way it's suppose to be
Don't say goodbye, say goodnight
So it's not over
And if you try, and answer why
It's just over, it's goodbye
I hope to see the dawn of daybreak
And a sunrise to cloudless skies
Now I've tried to see the truth
But I close eyes
And you were there for me and I was there for you
Don't say goodbye, say goodnight
So it's not over
And if you try, and answer why
And it's just over, it's goodbye
Now I lie upon my face; Though we try
I guess that's the way it's suppose to be
Don't say goodbye, say goodnight
So it's not over
And if you try, and answer why
And it's just over, it's goodbye
