Another goodbye

Another goodbye
~
Saying goodbye
To another dream, another love
Saying goodbye, another night
Like so many before it
Where a realisation dawns
This this idea of love
This notion by the heart
Which longs to love and be loved
Shall never come to be known
For all the efforts and words
The was never any beginning
Or sign that a dream could be
So it come to this once more
The tired farewell I’ve often said
The journey to move on, alone
Another goodbye I’m tired of saying
When I hoped to win your heart
To know you in private company
And feel you kiss upon my lips
Those same lips which now recite
Goodbye sweet love goodbye
You were only ever a dream
