Lyrics
Never An Easy Goodbye (Lyrics: Peter Monk, Music: Frank Goodman)
Too many faces for me to remember
Too many numbers I’ve already tried
Too many nights alone by a window
Never an easy goodbye
Too many words that ain’t worth the sayin’
Too many wells that ran empty and dried
Too many streets alone with my shadow
Never an easy goodbye
Too many songs that ain’t worth repeatin’
Too many people more dead than alive
Too many lovers who left without sayin
Never an easy goodbye
Too many lies to have faith in nothin’
Too many friends who belong to the night
Too many dreams that turned into fire
Never an easy goodbye
