The Silence of Goodbye
(Lyrics M. Lukers / music G. Humphrey)
Standing high on the belvadere
The question was at hand
To leave it all in vain
Or remain hand in hand
Your glass of wine untouched
The candles glow has met the sun
Left with a memory
While my burning heart goes on
(chorus)
I protected you, my life reflected you
I promised all my love undying for time
But then you turned away
You let me drown in pain
Now all that remains
Is the silence of goodbye
Out of the blue you came to me
I think back on the day
Carried with you a masque of love
To kill me with your pain
But now that I’m immune to
The hatred of your ways
I’ll fill my heart with wrath
And see what still remains
(chorus)
I should have seen it coming my way
I should have read the signs
Once again these feelings are like death to me
Overcoming me with all your lies
