Ain't No eazy goodbye - Soul Blues Icon
Some words come easy
But goodbye ain't one of them
You packed your dreams in silence
Didn't even slam the door
Just left a set of promises
Hanging in the floor
I tried to play the tough man
But the truth won't let me lie
Love don't fade that gentle, babe
Ain't no easy goodbye
Your picture's still by the mirror
And your dress still hangs in blue
Funny how the things you leave
Hold more of you than you do
I pour two cups of coffee
Out of habit I still try
But the chair across stays empty
Ain't no easy goodbye
They say time heals
But time just takes its turn
You don't lose love in a heartbeat
You lose it slow, it burns
I thought I'd find my strength
By letting go inside
But the heart don't sign no papers
Ain't no easy goodbye
Now the moonlight hits that window
Where your shadow used to fall
And I swear I hear your laughter
Walking through these halls
So I play this song real quiet
Till the night just passes by
'Cause love don't end in silence
Ain't no easy goodbye
Maybe someday I'll stop looking back
But not tonight
Ain't no easy goodbye
