It's five o'clock this morning and the sun is on the rise

There's frosting on the window pane and sorrow in your eyes

The stars are fading quietly, the night is nearly gone

You slowly turn away from me and tears begin to come



And it's

Goodbye again, I'm sorry to be leaving you

Goodbye again, 'cause if you didn't know

It's goodbye again, and I wish you could tell me

Why do we always fight when I have to go?



It seems a shame to leave you now, the days are soft and warm

I long to lay me down again and hold you in my arms

I long to kiss the tears away and give you back your smile

But other voices beckon me and for a little while



It's

Goodbye again, I'm sorry to be leaving you

Goodbye again, 'cause if you didn't know

It's goodbye again, and I wish you could tell me

Why do we always fight when I have to go?



I have to go and see some friends of mine, and some that I don't know

And some who aren't familiar with my name

It's something that's inside of me, not hard to understand

It's anyone who will listen to me sing



But if your hours are empty now, and who am I to blame

You think if I was always here our love would be the same

But as it is, the time we have is worth the time alone

And lying by your side, the greatest peace I've ever known



But it's

Goodbye again, I'm sorry to be leaving you

Goodbye again, 'cause if you didn't know

It's goodbye again, and I wish you could tell me

Why do we always fight when I have to go?
