WILFRED JOHN - Saying Farewell
Gone was the l ship that carried my love away
I looked till it became only a dot in the distant horizon
The sun was warm on my skin
I felt a breeze caress my cheek
soft like the tips of his fingers
Tears stung my eyes like the salt spray from the ocean
Gone was yesterday's promise of being together forever
Gone was the life I once loved and cherished
Left was the emptiness of days ahead
Long and lonely filled with dread
not knowing what lay ahead
Tomorrow I would head my car for the
Retracing that trail of tears that was
forged so long ago
Heartache was my only friend
I can still feel the way my shirt twirled around me
as the wind blow soft against me
I stood on the beach watching the waves
Gone was the ship that carried my love away
1989 Wilfred John
