Saying goodbye again
will it be the last time
Or will the coming sun
return you to my arms one day

Another goodbye another day
wishing you could always stay
Heart bleeds grief stricken
each time we wave goodbye

Night falls painfully into place
it brings little solace
To a soul ripped in two
when I fell in love with you

Crickets sing mournfully
through my open windows
Like our love waits and waits
knowing we are just snake bait

The sun rises on an empty bed
outside with the crickets instead
Keeping the snakes and sharks at bay
hoping next time you’ll be able to stay
