Goodbye Again lyrics

Artist  : John Denver 
Song : Goodbye Again
 
It’s five o’clock this morning, and the sun is on
the rise
There’s frosting on the window pane, and sorrow
in your eyes
The stars are fading quietly, the night is nearly
gone
And so you turn away from me, and tears begin to
come

And it’s goodbye again, I’m sorry to be leavin’
you
Goodbye again, as if you didn’t know
It’s goodbye again, and I wish you could tell me
Why do we always fight when I have to go

It seems a shame to leave you now, the days are
soft and warm
I long to lay me down again, to hold you in my
arms
I long to kiss the tears away, give you back the
smile
Other voices beckon me, to go a little while

And it’s goodbye again, I’m sorry to be leavin’
you
Goodbye again, as if you didn’t know
It’s goodbye again, and I wish you could tell me
Why do we always fight when I have to go

Have to go and see some friends of mine, some
that I don’t know
Some who aren’t familiar with my name,
It’s something that’s inside of me not hard to
understand
It’s anyone who listens to me sing

And if your hours are empty now, who am I to
blame
You think if I were always here, our love would
be the same
As it is the time we have, is worth the time
alone
And lying by your side, the greatest peace I’ve
ever known

But it’s goodbye again, I’m sorry to be leavin’
you
Goodbye again, as if you didn’t know
It’s goodbye again, and I wish you could tell me
Why do we always fight when I have to go
