Why Did We Say Goodbye
(strahm) © 2014 Strahmsong BMI

Sprawled in the grass under a willow tree
we were two young lovers wild and free
but time flew away I wonder to this today
Do you ever think about me
do you remember the warm summer breeze
the hunger we both shared and never could declare
or the question that's still burning in my mind

Why did we say goodbye
Oh it's been so long I can't recall why
didn't we burn hotter than the stars up in the sky
Why did we say goodbye

Just when I think I get it figured out
forgotten dreams come dance about
I end up wondering how you've been
Years may go by without feeling this flame
then in my dreams I call your name
and the yearning comes again, rekindling
when the night was once our refuge of forbidden fire

Why did we say goodbye
It's been so long I can't recall why
didn't we burn hotter than the stars up in the sky
Why did we say goodbye

It wasn't like a cheating song, where someone did somebody else wrong
I just can't put my finger on what it could be

Why did we say goodbye
It's been so long I can't recall why
didn't we burn hotter than the stars up in the sky
Why did we say goodbye
Why did we say goodbye
Why did we say goodbye
