Secrets of an Introvert

Is This Goodbye?

Is this goodbye?
Now that you aren't in my dreams anymore
Has my heart finally let you go?
Since the day I walked out that door?

We didn't know each other for very long
And I thought we had forever
Until that I was told you were leaving
I knew I had to enjoy the rest of our time together

Since that day, your face is gradually fading from my mind
When I close my eyes, I barely remember the man I knew
So now I have to ask myself if this means
That I am finally over you

Is this goodbye?
If all I can remember is your name?
Has my heart finally let you go?
Even though without you, life will never be the same

I never thought I could like someone so much
From the very first meeting
But you broke that rule completely
When your voice sent my heart a beating

With your guitar in hand
You played the first note
My smile started then
As you sent my whole world afloat

Is this goodbye
If your voice no longer easily comes to me?
Has my heart finally let you go?
Now your face I can no longer see

You never really understood why
Sometimes I just felt the need to look at you
Our eyes would meet; you'd ask if I'm alright
But I could never actually tell you the truth

So many times I pictured your face
Even though you were never to be mine
I could never seem to forget your smile
No matter how many times I tried

If in my mind you are no longer here
I guess this really is goodbye
I have to face up to the facts now
That you'll never again make my heart fly

And now that I can't recall your face
I guess my heart has finally let you go
So I hope without you
I can now have a life of my own
