A New Song...

I fold the bed
Far from effortlessly
I raise my head
Hungover from last night's memory

I wear the coat
The one with your fragrance over the sleeve
I lift the thought
Of the best thing that's ever happened to me

I catch my train
I had enough change
Maybe we should have spent a little more away
On that wishing well yesterday

To mention your name
Is to stall the madness, steal all its energy
Our star looks the same
But the light it shines now looks on so differently

The wines that I taste
Without your laughter lose their only appeal
I quicken my pace
For fear of reminding myself now I'll never be free

As I catch my flight
I had enough time
Maybe we should have spent a little more away
At that wishing well yesterday

Without a word,
The sun will wake you, it fits you so perfectly
Without a word,
I know you'll wake and save every smile for me
You should not have to handle goodbyes anymore
So I'll wave goodbye, goodbye, goodbye out the door

Your silhouette
Is blurring everything that I see
I'm such a wreck
And here I know it's all that I'll ever be

As I lay in bed
And I lose my head
Darling I think I may have spent it all away
At that wishing well yesterday

Without a word
The sun will wake you, it fits you so perfectly
Without a word
I know you'll wake and save every smile for me
You should not have to handle goodbyes anymore
So I'll wave goodbye, goodbye, goodbye out the door

Without a word
The sun will take my place as your company
Without a word
I know you'll wake and save all your love for me
You should not have to handle goodbyes anymore
So I'll wave goodbye goodbye goodbye out the door

You should not have to handle goodbyes anymore...
I'll whisper goodbye, goodbye, goodbye...out the door
