Goodbye

I guess it’s time to say goodbye…
Cold indifference doesn’t cry…
Bridges were burned… Mistakes were made…
I have debts that can never be paid…
We are but strangers passing in the hall…
It would have been 12 years, come fall…
I’m sorry I hurt you; I truly am…
I know at this point, you don’t give a damn…
I’ll be a lonely fool sitting in the rain…
At least when you leave, I can cause no more pain…

Well, that's how life is; we pay for our mistakes, and if it has to be goodbye, so shall it be. // paul
