Never Said Goodbye - Ruth Moody

I never said goodbye

Maybe I never even said hello

Why did you have to go

Were you feeling sad

I wish I’d called to say it’s not so bad

Though I know that’s all very well for me to say

I would have anyway

To try and make you stay

At least another day

I never said farewell

I didn’t know that it was

On your mind

I should’ve seen the signs

I never realized

You’d come all the way down

To the wires

There are so many things

I could have said

Before the summer set

But chances came and went

I won’t forget

And now it’s clear as day

I don’t know what it was

Standing in the way

I don’t know what it was

You could have asked me

You could have asked me

I never said goodbye

I thought I saw you on the avenue

Now I realize it wasn’t you

I just got the news
