Since We Never Said Hello (with Beth Goodman)
Since we never said hello
It was so easy to let you go.
It was easy to forget
What I never had the chance to remember.
You know I've seen your eyes
catch mine.
And yet, since we never said hello,
I never had the chance
To offer you a rose..,
Which could never compare
To the softness
Of your smile.
I can smell the rose and
it's soft against my skin.
I never had the chance
To offer you my heart...
Which was the only thing
I may offer
That was truly my own
At least until your smile
Stole it away last night.
Since we never said hello
It was so easy to let you go.
But the stars have lost their luster
The stars, well, they may have
lost some luster but they still
shine.
And the nights seem, somehow, colder.
Do you know it's your realness that warms
the nights which have become colder.
You see, we've said hello before.
It's goodbye that's haunting it's
lonely lullaby into our edges, let's
make them touch.
I have finally realized
What loneliness means
Since we never said hello.
No, it's really not so lonely
here.
