Lyrics

I wasn't there for you
I wasn't there for you
I know
Weather's gonna be fine
But I can't
See you across the streamline
My love
Waits for me in daytime
But I can't
See you through the snowblind
But I wasn't there for you
You are gone
And I wasn't there for you
Goodbyes are long
Goodbye
And I wasn't there for you
Goodbye
I wasn't there for goodbye
I wasn't there for goodbye
Well I know
Time reveals in hindsight
I can
Wrestle with the stormy night
Because
Your love lasts a lifetime
But I can
See you through the snowblind
But I wasn't there for you
You are gone
And I wasn't there for you
Goodbyes are long
You are gone
And I wasn't there for you
Goodbyes are long
And I wasn't there for you
Goodbye
I wasn't there for you
I wasn't there
I wasn't there for you
And I wasn't there for you
You are gone
And I wasn't there for you
Goodbyes are long
Goodbye
Goodbye
