The Catch
"Goodbye"
Capture me with your charms and die here in my arms
Before I have the chance to set things straight.
Lay there in the cold. Leave me growing old.
And then I wonder if time might wait.
You had it all - is that such an awful game for us to play? Why throw it all away?
You had it all; now I'm dying to say
Goodbye to love. Goodbye to love. Goodbye.
Goodbye to love - will I never had enough. Goodbye to loveĀ ? goodbye.
Where did you plan to go, buried in sand and snow?
I need a kiss to know you're not asleep.
With love like a sacrifice to the hell that is paradise.
I hope eternal life will come so cheap.
You had it all - when all comes to all. That's not a fair exchange.
Well. You didn't want to change.
You had it made - and I stayed - 'cause you couldn't bear to wait.
I would battle with the fates just to see your face.
Or even take your place; it's such a dreadful waste.
