a long goodbye Songtext / Lyric

It will be a long goodbye
But a better hello
I will wrap my arms around you
And kiss you very slow
This time will pass as surely
As the sunrise lights the sky
But when I try to explain how I'm feeling
The wordswon't come out right
So...
I don't want to say that I love you
I don't want to say goodbye
I don't want you to walk away
Baby I don't want to cry
I think about those movies
Two sugars in your tea
I'm thinking about those barrenjoey sunsets
I think what you mean to me
At home I can say I love you
To your soul behind your eyes
It's when sivler birds come to take you away
I'm chokingon tears inside
Repeat chorus
