she keeps me.
she kept me awake tonight.
tonight i keep thinking only of her.
tonight i kept dreaming only of nothing...
wishing tonight would bring me to her.
bring her to me.
bring us together...
tomorrow i'm leaving.
i'm leaving today behind me.
the future will keep me
the past has kept me away...
away from myself.
tonight i am thinking.
tonight i am dreaming of leaving.
leaving is the only way.....
tomorrow i'll tell her.
tomorrow i'll tell her myself
tomorrow i'll say to myself, "goodbye"
tomorrow i'll say to her myself "goodbye"
i'll tell her "goodbye" to myself as i'm leaving
i'll tell her the only way i know how
she will hear nothing
she will feel nothing
i fear that is the only way.
the only way to tell her the only way i know how
silence tonight
silence tomorrow
silence forever
i am leaving in silence...once and for all
"goodbye"

she keeps me.
she kept me awake tonight.
tonight i keep thinking only of her.
tonight i kept dreaming only of nothing...
wishing tonight would bring me to her.
bring her to me.
bring us together...
tomorrow i'm leaving.
i'm leaving today behind me.
the future will keep me
the past has kept me away...
away from myself.
tonight i am thinking.
tonight i am dreaming of leaving.
leaving is the only way.....
tomorrow i'll tell her.
tomorrow i'll tell her myself
tomorrow i'll say to myself, "goodbye"
tomorrow i'll say to her myself "goodbye"
i'll tell her "goodbye" to myself as i'm leaving
i'll tell her the only way i know how
she will hear nothing
she will feel nothing
i fear that is the only way.
the only way to tell her the only way i know how
silence tonight
silence tomorrow
silence forever
i am leaving in silence...once and for all
"goodbye"
