You know
(Instrumental)
We sit and watch umbrellas fly
I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry
I hear myself say:
"My boat's leaving now."
So we shake hands and cry
Now I must wave goodbye, wave goodbye
Wave goodbye, wave goodbye
Wave goodbye, wave goodbye
You know
I don't wanna cry again
Don't wanna cry again
I don't wanna say goodbye
Don't wanna cry again
I don't wanna run away
I don't wanna race this pain
I'll never see your face again
Oh but how
How can you say
That I didn't try?
You see things in the depths of my eyes
That my love's run dry
No
I leave to their goodbyes
I've come to depend on the look in their eyes
My blood's sweet for pain
The wind and the rain bring back words of a song
And they say wave goodbye, wave goodbye
Wave goodbye, wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
You know
I don't wanna fall again
I don't wanna know this pain
I don't want another friend
I don't wanna cry again
Don't ever wanna see you hurt
Don't let me see you hurt
Don't ever wanna see you hurt
Don't let me see you hurt
I don't wanna cry again
I'll never see your face again
How can you say
That I didn't try?
You know I did
You see things
In the depths of my eyes
My love's run dry
I don't want to cry again
So I read to myself
A chance of a lifetime to see new horizons
