Saying Goodbye

I’m getting ready for the hurt
I can see it in your eyes,
I can hear it in your voice
As you tell me one more lie

I can almost feel the pain
Soon it’s going to start
The aching in my soul
The cold hand on my heart

I know you’re moving on
What I’d like to know is why
I just feel that soon
You’ll be saying your goodbyes

It’s sad that what we had
Never again shall be
I know this for a fact
Not looking for sympathy

I’m getting ready for the hurt
And when all is said and done
That it only means
I was not the one.

The one to make you laugh
The one to make you sigh
The one to claim forever
Even though I tried.
