His Last Day
I'll miss you she said as she hung up the phone
And please don't feel lonely even though you're alone,
Home is just a jet away, I hope someday
You'll come back down my road
She said: you know I'd wait for you even forever
If you don't come back I'm happy that we spent one day together
Hope is just a dream away and everyday
This moment I'll remember, I'll remember
And he said: I'm already gone
I might never come back
The sun's rays are pulling me to a strange dawn,
I'm so far from home
If I never come back
I just wanted, just wanted you to know.
I'll miss you she said in the panic of dawn
And please don't feel lonely, you won't be that for long;
Don't blame me cos lovers can't while others
have no problem moving on
He kissed her goodbye and then walked away slow
And the airport was cold and it started to snow
And every snowflake held a teardrop, every teardrop
held a story never told
And he said: I'm so far away
I might never come back
Strange winds are taking me to a strange place,
I'm so far from home
If I never come back
I just wanted, just wanted you to know
The letter's in the mail, but these hands are frail,
The pen will break and the ink will spill away;
Telephones are broken, electric lines are shattered,
Connection never really mattered anyway...
Or was there something I had to say?
Springtime had come like the day follows night
Like the thunder that faithfully follows the light
And every night she told herself she was okay
But every day she wasn't right
And he wrote her poetry on his guitar
But she wasn't there so he played for the stars
And to the sound the moon leaned down
And smiled wide and far
So the moon told the sun and the sun told the rain
And the rains they cried out and the thunder complained
Ands the winds began to blow and the waves
Became percussion as he sang
He sang: I'm already gone
I might never come back
The sun's rays have pulled me to a strange dawn
I'm so far from home
If I never come back,
I just wanted, just wanted you to know
She sang: I will find you wherever you are
And never let you go so far away again, and
Leave behind what I need to to find you again
