Time To Say GoodBye

You used to hold and kiss me

And stirred such strong desire.

I thought you truly loved me

As you set my soul on fire.

So warm and gentle was your touch,

So tender .. your caress.

You made me want you oh so much,

You were my happiness.

You've grown cold ..

we're far apart

You've left me here alone.

There is an ache inside my heart,

A chill down to the bone.

You never touch me anymore,

You seldom speak my name.

You've lost the smile you always wore,

You've grown tired of the game.

I guess its time for me to go,

I don't feel welcome here.

I'm not important to you

so I'll simple pack my gear.

A tearful parting you'll be spared,

I won't break down and cry.

I thank you for the time we've shared,

With love I'll say good bye.
