I would have taken more pictures
If I'd known you wouldn't stay
But memories and photographs both fade
So I guess it doesn't make a difference anyway
And when you said hello
I should have known you'd say goodbye
Next time I will remember this
So I won't sit here wondering why
Waves wash away from the land
We build our castles in the sand
You can play inside
Just remember the tide
The waves will wash in when it's high
So sooner or later, goodbye
I might have told you you mattered
If I thought it could make you stay
Now I have to thank you for the lesson learned
Though I guess that it's a debt I never can repay
I'll never say forever
I know it's a promise I can't make
Next time I will remember this
Won't make bonds I can't afford to break
Waves wash away from the land
We build our castles in the sand
You can play inside
Just remember the tide
The waves will wash in when it's high
So sooner or later, goodbye
There are beautiful things in my life today
That I didn't know about yesterday
What's gone tomorrow
Brings me no sorrow
I know nothing's here to stay
Even loneliness goes away
