John Hamilton Poet Lyric

Never a Right Time

Never a right time

Vs 1
There's never a right time,
to ever say goodbye,
Now that the love has died... I just can't try

Vs 2
Your memory never fades,
You'll be with me everyday,
You'll always have a place, here in my mind


Chorus
So, when you find out
that I'm gone baby don't cry.
I just couldn't find the courage
to say goodbye.
When you understand... 
why I went away,
Remember me and smile,
then, turn the page

Vs 3
There's no time left to say,
but, I'm grateful for each day,
You won't believe how hard, it is to leave

Vs 4
Too bad we're out of time,
love rarely turns out right,
At least the lights burned out, after burning bright


Chorus
So, when you find out
that I'm gone baby don't cry.
I just couldn't find the courage
to say goodbye.
When you understand... 
why I went away,
Remember me and smile,
then, turn the page

Outro

When you understand... 
why I went away,
Remember me and smile...
then turn the page


There's never a right time...
to ...
ever ...
say ...
goodbye...

Lin Lane November 30, 2021 at 6:37 AM Hi John. I see your lyrical creations are as wonderful as ever. There's never a good time or right time to say farewell to one you love. I feel your lines quite deeply. Lin Lane November 30, 2021 at 7:31 AM I totally understand that, John. Whether I write lyrics or poems, many that I begin turn out to be moody, even when I'm not feeling blue. John Hamilton November 30, 2021 at 7:00 AM Thanks Lin I'm glad you came by and liked it enough to comment, sometimes(actually most times) my songs come out sad, funny because I'm not sad but I guess there's a reason.

Joanna Daniel November 29, 2021 at 12:57 AM Glad to see you are back and composing love lyrics again, John, this is really inspirational with a tinge of sadness:) John Hamilton November 29, 2021 at 5:12 PM Thanks Jo yeah it's a sad long goodbye, sometimes they come out sad, guess my mood reflects in the lyric!

Jan Allison November 26, 2021 at 5:04 AM Another superb lyric john, you are a talented songwriter indeed, hugs jan xx John Hamilton November 26, 2021 at 9:42 AM Thanks Jan, it came to me last night out of the blue, it's kinda nice when that happens, not feeling inspired much lately, must be pandemic fatigue. Maybe this is a sign my creativity is coming back. I appreciate your kind visit!
