Peter Hammill Lyrics
If We Must Part Like This Lyrics
Already there's no case for special pleading,
No points to score, no blow by blow.
I look around the room that we'll be leaving.
Even while your're here beside me I already know I miss you so.
How soon we make our move towards hereafter
Where we will reap what has been sown.
A shadow chills the music, stills the laughter.
Promise that you'll stay forever, say you'll never go. - I miss you so.
I turn my eyes, stare into the distance,
The light that dies, the door that's closed.
No last goodbye, if we must part like this - I miss you so.
I feel so strange and restless, dislocated,
I'm homesick even though I'm here at home.
Nostalgic for the future, I have waited
My shaking hands, the lump that's in my throat.
Even while I'm here beside you
I still miss you so.
And it's too late to make it any different,
The wave that breaks, the tide that flows.
Outrageous fate is tearing us apart - I miss you so.
I turn my eyes, stare into the distance.
The light that dies, the door that's closed.
No last goodbye, if we must part like this
I miss you so, so much.
It won't make any difference
To say how much it hurts, I know.
No last goodbye, if we must part like this,
I miss you so,
I miss you so,
I miss you so.
