Sound Of Goodbye

Charlton Hill

I never thought the sun would shine again

and lonely clouds would settle in

but all the fools have gone

for they were wrong about

what the summer shower brings.



Glassy eyes and flowers on the floor,

a waiting cab and memories

to give a little more.

Our words are unresolved,

they're trapped in the folds

of a book about the art of closing doors.



And I know that you might find me a little bit peculiar

but I'm the one who's supposed to be bringing back the cure .



So won't you just



Open your eyes and see

I'm falling around you

just when I seemed to be floating in velvet skies

I'm hearing the sound of goodbye



My diary pages look so white and bare ,

a passing glance could make you think

that I don't even care.

You couldn't be more wrong,

I've searched for so long

for you and me and what we had before.



And there's times late at night

when the ghost of you comes calling

and though I try to hold you tight

you always slip through by the morning.



Who's to say you won't be back again,

until that day I'll keep falling.....
