How could this ever happen?
The empty dreams, the lost lover's passion.
You look in my direction but your eyes don't see me.
I've never felt so lost and lonely.
What happened to the love you shared with me?
I didn't hear, I couldn't see.
Has your love turned to hate?
Can it mend? Is it too late?
Your love has turned away from me.
The slightest chance isn't meant to be.
The memories lie shattered on the floor.
I hear your footsteps walking to the door.
My arms hang loose at my side.
I'm too numb to even cry.
I hear you softly close the door.
Your love is lost forever more.
Now I'm left to face an empty day.
A flame has died and gone away.
The darkness has come and is here to stay.
My soul is cold and has lost its way.
A single tear rolls down my cheek.
My head spins round, I can not speak.
My heart shatters, I lose control.
The sweet memories my lover stole.
I yell out loud in great despair.
My life comes crashing down everywhere.
Farewell the love I lost today.
Dreams may come, come what may.

"Cukup."
Kening ku berkerut setelah membaca judul,
"Sad Goodbye? Untuk aku?"
"I don't dare!"
"Oh..."
