WHEN LOVERS SAY GOODBYE
Two hearts will ache with sorrow Two hearts will surely cry And foolish pride is oft to blame When lovers say goodbye One hasty word in anger Can start a senseless rift And minds will ache and hearts will break When love is set adrift The days and nights seem endless The hearts know only pain And nought will fill this emptiness 'Till love is found again The future plans they nurtured Lay shipwrecked on the sand And there they'll stay eternally Lest both hearts take a stand The book of life is open It holds your plans and schemes Don't let your pen of history write Of shattered hopes and dreams To save this love they treasured Both hearts must give some ground Both hearts must beat again as one To save the love they found But if the hearts are foolish The wound will never heal Too late both hearts will understand The hurt a heart can feel The bird of love no longer sings His wings no longer fly And all the world's a colder place When lovers say goodbye K.D.
