How I wish I were talking to you
I know what you'd say
You'd be kind
Too kind
And I'd ask you to tell me the raw truth
And maybe you would
You'd tell me how it never really goes
And I'm going to have to learn to live with it
Just as you have all these years
And I'll ask you how you've done it
And you'll tell me something beautiful
And I'll laugh
And I'll cry
And you'll do the same
And we'll be each other's again
Just for the night
Until the morning
When my beautiful words say I'm leaving
And your beautiful words say goodbye.
