Words Unspoken

Whispered words caught in the wind

A silent farewell begins

I can't say I don't love her

Still I can't pretend

My heart is torn just knowing that

I'm losing my best friend

If it's easier said than done

Then someone tell me why

Though I try

I can't find the words to say goodbye

I know I have to go

There's no other way

But goodbye is not what I can bring myself to say

I can tell her "see you later"

But then I might be wrong

This voice inside is driving me

To find where I belong

I can tell her that I'm sorry

And hope she'll understand

And she'll have to do with someone else

All that we had planned

I'd rather her hear the truth

Than hurt her with a lie

So I try

I can't find the words to say goodbye

I know I have to go

There's no other way

But goodbye is not what I can bring myself to say

I can tell her "see you later"

But then I might be wrong

This voice inside is driving me

To find where I belong

I know I must leave her now

Every time I try

I can't find the words to say goodbye

Don't know why

I can't find the words to say goodbye

Silent tears fall in the night

Hoping she feels right

Even if I never get to tell

Just how much she meant to me
