(richards)

Ever since that first night

When i gave my love to you

Everything seemed so right

You are my sunlight shining through



And i tried so not to let it show

Yet it seems sad because i know



No matter how hard i try

No matter how hard i try

There's always goodbye



You smile softly as you leave my bed

And i tightly hold your hand

You lean down to kiss my head

But there's nothing to be said



And if you said you want to sing

I know you'd soon be on your way



No matter how hard we try

No matter how hard we try

There's always goodbye



So here we stand, you and i

You are too kind and i'm too shy

To say what we really mean



So we make life a masquerade

Never showing all, only the parts we played



Chorus



No matter how hard i try

No matter how hard i try

There's always goodbye

There's always goodbye



(repeat)
