"Didn't Have Time To Say Goodbye"
(c)2008 Bob Atkinson
brushed her hair in the morning light
looked into the mirror
smiled at the way it was cut this time
Louise was a keeper
a party yesterday
a field trip today
to see the flowers in spring bloom
on a bright, sunlit day
a party yesterday
a field trip today
to see the flowers in spring bloom
on a bright, sunlit day
didn't have time to say goodbye
didn't have a reason to call and cry
just sat in the chair and didn't move
razor cleaned his face of stubble
left shoe lace gave him some trouble
started the car as he'd always done
then something strange went through his mind
he wouldn't have time to say goodbye
didn't have a reason to call and cry
just sat in the seat and didn't move
so many loved their sweet ways
so many gifts they always gave
so many hugs sincerely tight
they didn't have time to say goodbye
didn't have a reason to call and cry
just sat there and didn't move
