Good Bye
Saying Good-Bye
Only fourteen without a clue.
God only knew it would be you.
Scared and afraid and left all alone.
No, where to go or even call home.
A child they say, how could it be?
You dropped to the floor and down on one knee.
Praying for God to show you the way.
But how could you bear to give me away?
Holding me close as you started to cry.
Whispering I love you as you said goodbye.
Sometimes wishing you'd had changed your mind.
Only to turn back the hands in time.
Now it's too late.
It must have been fate.
You're somebody else's to have and to hold
Bundled so tight so I wouldn't be cold.
You watched from the window as they took me away.
So many things you wished you could say.
Goodbye baby girl you're always in my heart.
Now you will have a great new start.
