Lyrics
You Never Said Goodbye
Music and Lyrics by Mary Ott Copyright 1990
Leavin? as you did,
I never had the chance.
Things were left unsaid,
I thought we were mid-dance.
Did I really misread all the cues?
I turned around
And you were on to someone new.
Chorus:
I?ll miss you in the cold of December.
I?ll miss you in the heat of July.
All I?m left with, are warm nights to remember,
Did you know,
You Never Said Goodbye?
Verse:
Now I would be the first one to say,
You have the right to leave
And have it, your own way.
There?s just one thing,
That I would like,
For you to know,
The love I have for you,
Will follow where you go.
Bridge:
Many walls divided us,
We were both afraid.
Who?s to say that given time,
You?d have chose to stay.
