Valediction

Breathing is a sin, they say,
 Loneliness is the price to pay.
 Sad for you, I go once more.
 I'll dry my eyes on a distant shore.
 No way of freezing your rising tide
 No way of keeping you by my side.
 Like a bird, I'll fly high,
 Guarding over this love of mine.
 A room of trust
 A room of fears
 A room of laughter with a few sweet tears.
 There we lay that sunny dawn
 Calm and helpless as it lingers on.
 No way of keeping you by my side.
 No way of keeping our love alive.
 Like a bird, I'll fly high,
 Guarding over this love of mine.
 Many times we hurry by
 Lose our problems in a knowing smile.
 Many days were swept along
 Left unnoticed as our love grew strong.
 Believing each of us would always know
 Believing one of us would never go.
 Like a bird, I'll fly high
 Watching over this love of mine.
