If I recall the things we used to do
It seems I had this strange effect on you
The closer we got you moved further away
Further away

The fog got thicker and the clouds broke up
The ghosts were dancing and refused to stop
It all appeared completely indistinct
So indistinct

Since you said goodbye
All I do is fantasize
That for another moment
I can look into your eyes
Since you said goodbye
Said goodbye

Although the darkest nights for us were made
The moon was full but it refused to stay
And morning light always returns too soon
Much too soon

There will be many other nights like this
But never other lips that I may kiss
I won't be standing here with someone new
I'll wait for you

Since you said goodbye
All I do is fantasize
That for another moment
I can look into your eyes
Since you said goodbye
Said goodbye

I won't be here to see your beauty fade
Each night that follows wear a darker shade
And we'll go wandering under the stars
Never more
