Long Goodbyes

This was the last song on The Habit of Fear.

I’m not very good at long goodbyes
So don’t act so surprised
If I can’t say when I’m going away
Or how long I can stay by your side

Chorus
But while I’m here
You’ll have all my love, my dear
Whether we know it or not
That’s all anyone has to give

We don’t all walk well on narrow roads
We’re travelers of all different kinds
Some enter crying and some enter still
And some hold on long past their time

I don’t want to break the spell
But all dreamers must give in and wake
If I close my eyes, you won’t open yours
No matter how long I wait

Normally for the three people who might read this, I’d put a link to the music, and talk about what inspired the song, but I think it’s just time to give in and wake.
