Beat You to Goodbye Lyrics

Staring down the aisles

Fickle faded smiles

I know you're changing

Biding for an out

Burgeoning with doubt

Your heart is waning

Waning away from me

When I hold you now

My heart can feel

There's something gone

That once was there before

Barren in my arms

Wavered and withdrawn

Callous to my touch

You're gone tonight

I can see it in your eyes

I'm running out of time

Your love has died

You're leaving me behind

I wonder in my petty mind

If I beat you to goodbye

Girl could I still

Break your heart tonight

Future's overcast

Longing for the past

When love was reigning

Overwrought throughout

Surfeited with doubt

But you're still waiting

Waiting there for me

Patience though astounding

I know that I can't ask you to

Stand by perpetually

Ensuring my own

Prophecies become

Real while all your

Grace for me subsides

I can see it in your eyes

I'm running out of time

Your love has died

You're leaving me behind

I wonder in my petty mind

If I beat you to goodbye

Girl could I still

Break your heart tonight

I can see it in your eyes

I'm running out of time

Your love has died

You're leaving me behind

I wonder in my petty mind

If I beat you to goodbye

Girl could I still

Break your heart tonight
