20 Years of Goodbye
A Breath, A Tear, A Final Glance
20 years we laughed, we cried
Dreaming, hoping, planning, living
Closer and further, growing both ways at once
Was it goodbye before it ever started?
Two opposites destined to burn out
Refusing to believe the signs, always knowing better
Hold on tighter, don't think, everything will be alright
20 years is enough to last, right?
Life turned upside down, distance growing greater
Hearts know no bounds, clinging despite the weather
Turbulent storms, lightning between us
Where did 20 years go so wrong?
Two lonely cars, an empty parking lot
Words pouring, anything to avoid goodbye
Push me away again, make it easier to say
20 years of trying to stay
A heart broken, pieces cutting like glass
Tears falling, glistening diamonds streaking our cheeks
A shy hello to memories never to be lost
It was all just 20 years of goodbye

*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.
