Silent Goodbye  D

All I could do was listen
on a perfect august night
we walked the cliffs at Newport 
watching waves of a mountain's height
she warned me not to listen 
then she made me feel her heart
still a bleeding sorrow 
since her lovers ways had parted

while I listened to all her talking
seemed like the evening sun stopped setting
never lettin' on just
how her love had caught me there
while she cried how much she loved him
and how he never understood
I couldn't interrupt her I just let her 
ramble on like she would
(br1)
all at once it seems I felt her fading smile
her timing hit me like a flash of fire
She knew she held me burning with desire...was the last thing on her mind

when I saw her just today I thought she'd stop on by
but there she goes just a stepping as I listen
to her silent good.. bye...her silent good bye, her silent good bye, 
yet another good Bye
(br2)
Six months roll by and I could hardly breathe
That woman had me right between the knees
she knew just how to make a man believe...was the last thing on my mind

She phoned me up today, I could not wonder why
but I just kept on talkin, while I listened for that silent good.. bye...
that silent good bye, her silent good bye, yet another good Bye
