Goodnight Kiss

[lofro]

It took me four years to finally see the truth
Four years alone just to see past you
I have no regrets about it,
I would not take it back,
You taught me more than you know,
And stole more than you could pack

I don't blame you for the sorrow,
And I thank you for the joy,
Gave me something to look forward to,
Gave me something I could avoid,
You left me without a parting word
Walked away into the mist
While I waited on the sidewalk
And leave without a goodnight kiss

Four years of waiting,
Four years to forget,
Four years of changing,
Of dying someone else's death
You've vanished like a whisper,
And faded like a winter's breath

Don't blame you for the sorrow
Thank you for the joy
Gave me something to look forward to,
And something I could avoid,

You left without a parting word
Walked away into the mist
While I waited on the sidewalk
Not blowing a goodnight kiss
