But for the Time

How I tried not to hide our goodbye

And see you crying

But it had to be

Still all we had good and bad

Can't make us sad

But only glad that

Our love was free

And I'll count the times

I spoke the lines

I love you, I love you

I'd like to say in every way how much you made

Me want to stay here

And I thought I might

But rambling on has been my song for far too long

To end it all here

It wouldn't feel right

Yes that's been my crime

Just moving on down that line

So long, so long

But for the time my parting line is not goodbye

But simply I'll be

Here within your heart

For there I know a love can grow and not turn cold

Like it was before we

Felt these feelings start

And if I lose my way

I'll know there's something safe

Here with you, here with you

I'll curse my fate again

Blind man's bluff I'll play

But surely some day, some way, I will stay

But for the time my parting line is not goodbye

But simply I'll be

Here within your heart

For there I know a love can grow and not turn cold

Like it was before we

Felt these feelings start

And it's I'll count all the times

I spoke the lines

I love you, I love you
