The Day I Said Goodbye

The rain outside is falling
So you'll never know I cried
The day I left this lonely place
The day I said goodbye

I never meant to fall in love
But how could I resist
The way I felt down deep inside
The first time that we kissed?

You made me feel so special
Even though I felt so bare
I saw it deep down in your eyes
The smile that showed you care

But soon we'll go our separate ways
So far apart we'll be
And I will miss you so, my love
While I'm in Germany

Someday our paths may cross again
Sometimes you never know
But 'til then, please remember, dear
That I do love you so
