Valediction

Breathing is a sin, they say

Loneliness is the price to pay

Sad for you, I go once more

I'll dry my eyes on a distant shore

No way of freezing your rising tide

No way of keeping you by my side

Like a bird, I'll fly high

Guarding over this love of mine

A room of trust

A room of fears

A room of laughter with a few sweet tears

There we lay that sunny dawn

Calm and helpless as it lingers on

No way of breaking our mind of time

No way of keeping our love sublime

Like a bird, I'll fly high

Watching over this love of mine

Many times we hurry by

Lose our problems in a knowing smile

Many days were swept along

Left unnoticed as our love grew strong

Knowing that each of us would always know

Believing one of us would never go

Like a bird, I'll fly high

Watching over this love of mine
