A long goodbye...

I guess it's the point
Where I'll bid thee farewell
I guess now's the time
To take leave of the spell

So long to love and hope
So long to fairy tale
Go now these transient dreams
Fall now these blinding scales

Today's the day
I think I'll turn the other way
I've had my cry
Now I will say a long goodbye

Before the pain subsides
Before the memory beckons
After death has shaken
All is changed in a second

I'll part with innocence
So goes Eden's array
I'll make my exit here
From this world of dismay

No more delay
I think I liked the other way
I've had my cry
Now I will say a long goodbye

Thank You
You were the one
You helped me see
You always did
Now the romance is over
And the damage is done
No more movies
It's frightening
Reality has just begun
But am I free
Lifted off this debris?
True love's a fallacy

The end is nigh
Just just give a sigh
I will say my long goodbye

I altered the lyrics of the original song, which was a duet, I guess to make it a better reflection of how I really feel now. The bitterness has subsided I guess. But the pain still remains; the wounds have yet to heal completely. But life goes on, long after the thrill of living is gone...
