the lover

Though I have had friends
And a beautiful love
There is one lover I await above all.
he will not come to me
In the time of soft plum-blossoms
When the air is gay with birds singing
And the sky is a delicate caress;
he will come
From the midst of a vast clamour
With a mist of stars about him
And great beckoning plumes of smoke
Upon his leaping horses.

And he will bend suddenly and clasp me;
he will clutch me with fierce arms
And stab me with a kiss like a wound
Thad bleeds slowly.

But though he will hurt me at first
In his strong gladness
he will soon soothe me gently
And cast upon me an unbreakable sleep
Softly for ever.

here comes goodbye

I can hear the truck tires coming up the gravel road
And it's not like he to drive that slow, nothing's on the radio
Footsteps on the front porch, I hear my doorbell
He usually comes right in, now I can tell

Here comes goodbye
Here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every sleepless night
The first of every tear I'm gonna cry

Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishing things had never changed
And he was right here in my arms tonight
But here comes goodbye
I can hear he say "I love you" like it was yesterday
And I can see it written on his face that he had never felt this way
One day I thought I'd see him with his daddy by him side
And violins would play Here Comes The Bride


But here comes goodbye
Here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every sleepless night
The first of every tear I'm gonna cry

Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishing things had never changed
And he was right here in my arms tonight
But here comes goodbye

Why's it have to go from good to gone?
Before the lights turn on
Yeah, and you're left alone
Oh! But here comes goodbye! Oh!

Here comes goodbye
Here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every sleepless night
The first of every tear I'm gonna cry

Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishing things had never changed
And he was right here in my arms tonight
But here comes goodbye
