My heart says goodbye
in the silence of sunrise
knowing I'll never return

You left it to long
and love left untended
fades like the fog
in the hot July sun

My heart says goodbye
to faith riding patience
I have nothing more to give

With stubborn conviction
you took love for granted
and watched it melt
in the heat of despair

My heart says goodbye
leaving me lonely
leaving me shattered

Wanting to turn back the clock
and hope you would see
that love freely given
should not be denied

My heart says goodbye
to the pain of your going
but I will survive
I will survive

Daniel...I'm not sure lonliness cures anything, it just helps prepare you. Thanks for reading this.
