lyrics
Without the good-bye kiss and I love you in the morning.
Finally managed to put a smile on your face again.
After what seemed like years I’ve decided.
To let go as much as distance and my thoughts will allow.
Gotten right back into your daily routine.
No lost sleep or eyes that hang black.
It’s a little late for friends.
And I’m too rooted in you to be enemies
I must’ve meant nothing to you.
Was I just something to do.
So do me the favor of acting consistent.
So I can hate you for a while and then be done with it.
But what was disgust on your face.
Turned into a cold handshake and one more for old times sake.
Couldn’t say a word when it mattered.
So why now in the end.
Do you have so much to laugh and chat about again.
Without the good-bye kiss and I love you in the morning.
Finally managed to put a smile on your face again.
