Guess You'll Never Know

I heard the news just yesterday

... been a long time since I've cried

As your sister wiped her tears away

I had to ask her why

after years of missing you you never called to say

the things you wrote just yesterday ...could it be done another way

Chorus:

Goodbye, I guess I'm forced to say

Yet I really want to show

What I somehow thought was meant to be

I guess you'll never know

Your mother called awhile ago and read me what you wrote

She wasn't sure I'd really care but thought I'd like to know

Well, seems its now a day too late to send you my reply

I'd take it to you personally, if I had the guts to try.

Chorus:

So long my love....I feel that I'm as helpless as a child

I wish that I could bring you back for just a little while

I'd tell you what I knew back then, but could it help you now?

The past has gone and won't return, yet still I wonder how.
