No Good-Byes

I was out walking

I called to the sky

"If you're up there, please show that you care

And end what I'm feeling inside"

The news came this morning

From a note on the door

"Enjoyed my stay and oh, by the way

I don't love you anymore"

No good-byes, no shameless lies

Your clean getaway

Stole what words I had to say

Do I blame you less

'Cause I have to guess

Why you're gone

Our slow dance is over

Our song has been sung

Its time to choose over what I would lose

If I saw the truth that I've won

Its true you don't love me

And now that I know

I'm free from the fear of not having you near

And now I have more room to grow

No good-byes, no lame disguise

Your clean getaway

Said all you need to say

As I might have guessed

Its all for the best

That you're gone
