Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm
Your hair upon the pillow, like a sleepy golden storm
Many loved before us, I know we are not new
In city and in forest, they love like me and you
Now it's come to distances and both of us must try
Your eyes fill with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye
[Verse 2]
I'm not looking for another as I wander in my time
Walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme
You know my love goes with you, your love stays with me
It's just the way life changes, like the shoreline of the sea
But let's not talk of love or change, things we can't untie
Your eyes fill with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye
[Verse 3]
I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm
And your hair upon the pillow, like a sleepy golden storm
Many loved before us, I know that we are not new
And in city and in forest, they love like me and you
But now it's come to distances, both of us must try
Your eyes fill with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye
[Verse 4]
I'm not looking for another as I wander in my time
Walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme
You know my love goes with you, your love stays with me
It's just the way life changes, like the shoreline of the sea
But let's not talk of love or change, things we can't untie
Your eyes fill with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye
