All The Things You Said

All the things you said,
So often to my soul,
Made me wonder which path I tread,
And made me feel so old.

A gentle kiss,
A sweet caress,
The delicate closeness,
But it wasn't bliss.

The sun was shining,
But the shadows were closing (in),
You tried to pull fast ones (on me),
But I wasn't dozing.

You said something to me,
Said never before,
You said you would stay,
And I wouldn't be alone anymore.

Time passed us by,
As I watched the grass (grow),
I guess I waited too long,
Because you have a new lass.

Never would leave,
Turned into goodbye,
I suppose I could grieve,
But I won't let time pass me by (anymore).

Goodbye to you,
Goodbye to me,
But never again (never),
Will you see (inside my soul),
It's only meant for me.

A delicate balance,
Was shattered like glass,
It came down to goodbye,
Because you "had" to lie (to me).
