This is the last time I write to you
You’re long gone from my thought
There is no more that’s left to say
There’s nothing to be fought
One day, you say, one day, you’ll see
One day will never come
And even if it ever did
I’ve waited far too long
The bridge is built, the water runs
My mind is far away
My heart is even further still
There is no more, one day
To hold to you, to hold to pain
Has gone on long enough
Not because of you, despite of you
I’ve grown up to be tough
Goodbye to you, and to the pain
Goodbye to all the fight
Goodbye to be not seen again
The curtains closed, goodnight.
