Daniel Richards - **A forgotten goodbye**

I remember the night I told you how my brother died
You held me in your arms when I broke down and cried
Your sewn into the fabric the pieces of my life
I just can’t remember why we said goodbye

That rollercoaster you just had to ride
I remember, how you laughed at the terror in my eyes
Just like it was yesterday I remember
The colour and detail of that day

Do you remember us walking the Thames?
Where the lonely people sit, I know it wasn’t perfect but nothing ever is
You came not a moment to soon without a minute to spare
Touched my heart when I didn’t have a prayer

But now I’m back in that place, and I don’t know why
Now I think that love will never find me,
And the one who cares is lost somewhere in time
I just can’t remember why we said goodbye

There must have been a reason, but I can't remember now
I know if I could hold you we could work it out

Now I’m standing at the end of my rainbow
With no where to go and no pot of gold in sight
I wish for your light for just one more time
I can’t remember why we said goodbye

Can you tell my why, just why
We said goodbye

Daniel Richards
