It's funny how a phrase
Can take me far away
Back in time
To that place where
Everything was more than okay

Just an innocent conversation,
Just a friendly saying

And suddenly it hits me
-- how you used to say good night

I wonder
Should I have stayed awake?
To show I cared?
Did you want me to?
Would it change anything?

Yes I'd say goodbye
But I wished I'd wake up
To see your "good morning"
