歌詞

Why do you always look away from me, my friend?

A sudden shift inside your eyes before the end

Where are they gazing, what is it that they trace?

A little further than tomorrow’s empty space

Staring into a distance that I’ll never know

I held your left hand tight, to keep the night alive

But you just let it loose, choosing to survive

Between our fingers, the cold wind begins to blow

Passing right through the space where the promises grow

Looking back now, I see the truth was making it plain

That was your answer, written in the shadow of pain

I should have noticed then, before the pouring rain

Goodbye... the word is echoing with nowhere left to go

Without a single sound, it starts to melt and flow

Dissolving into the air, vanishing out of sight

I loved you so much... the phrase I swallowed down tight

Locked in my chest, hidden away from the light

Thank you... I whispered softly as you walked away

Told to your fading back, at the end of the day

The shoulder that you touched is still burning so hot

The smile you showed beside me is the one thing I caught

I can’t forget the view, no matter how I try

The recollections rise underneath the heavy sky

But every memory is starting to overflow

Blurred by the falling tears, losing the steady glow

Goodbye... the heavy sky I’m looking up to see

Is always staying blue, as calm as it can be

Nothing has changed at all, the world is moving on

And it’s so bittersweet, now that the spark is gone

We’ll never meet again, across the crowded floor

Nobody in this world could ever mean much more

Goodbye... the broken words that couldn't find a tongue

A silent melody that we have left unsung

It will never reach you, it will never find your ear

Fading away into the distance that I fear

I loved you so much... inside the silent grace

Swallowed until the end, leaving a missing space

Thank you... I’ll whisper softly as you walk away

Told to your fading back, at the end of the day

Letting it drift away
