Already there's no case for special pleading, | |
no points to score, no blow by blow. | |
I look around the room that we'll be leaving. | |
Even while your're here beside me I already know I miss you so. | |
How soon we make our move towards hereafter | |
where we will reap what has been sown. | |
A shadow chills the music, stills the laughter. | |
Promise that you'll stay forever, say you'll never go. – I miss you so. | |
I turn my eyes, stare into the distance, | |
the light that dies, the door that's closed. | |
No last goodbye, if we must part like this – I miss you so. | |
I feel so strange and restless, dislocated, | |
I'm homesick even though I'm here at home. | |
Nostalgic for the future, I have waited | |
my shaking hands, the lump that's in my throat. | |
Even while I'm here beside you | |
I still miss you so. | |
And it's too late to make it any different, | |
the wave that breaks, the tide that flows. | |
Outrageous fate is tearing us apart – I miss you so. | |
I turn my eyes, stare into the distance. | |
The light that dies, the door that's closed. | |
No last goodbye, if we must part like this | |
I miss you so, so much. | |
It won't make any difference | |
to say how much it hurts, I know. | |
No last goodbye, if we must part like this, | |
I miss you so, | |
I miss you so, | |
I miss you so. |
Already there' s no case for special pleading, | |
no points to score, no blow by blow. | |
I look around the room that we' ll be leaving. | |
Even while your' re here beside me I already know I miss you so. | |
How soon we make our move towards hereafter | |
where we will reap what has been sown. | |
A shadow chills the music, stills the laughter. | |
Promise that you' ll stay forever, say you' ll never go. I miss you so. | |
I turn my eyes, stare into the distance, | |
the light that dies, the door that' s closed. | |
No last goodbye, if we must part like this I miss you so. | |
I feel so strange and restless, dislocated, | |
I' m homesick even though I' m here at home. | |
Nostalgic for the future, I have waited | |
my shaking hands, the lump that' s in my throat. | |
Even while I' m here beside you | |
I still miss you so. | |
And it' s too late to make it any different, | |
the wave that breaks, the tide that flows. | |
Outrageous fate is tearing us apart I miss you so. | |
I turn my eyes, stare into the distance. | |
The light that dies, the door that' s closed. | |
No last goodbye, if we must part like this | |
I miss you so, so much. | |
It won' t make any difference | |
to say how much it hurts, I know. | |
No last goodbye, if we must part like this, | |
I miss you so, | |
I miss you so, | |
I miss you so. |
Already there' s no case for special pleading, | |
