Goodbye Again (John Denver)                           [chorus]                                          
                                                                                                        
It's five o'clock this morning and the sun is on                                                        
the rise. There's frosting on the window pane                                                           
and sorrow in your eyes. The stars are fading                                                           
quietly, the night is nearly gone, And so you                                                           
turn away from me and tears begin to come.                                                              
                                                                                                        
[chorus]:                                                                                               
    And it's goodbye again, I'm sorry to                                                                
    be leaving you. Goodbye again, as if                                                                
    you didn't know, It's goodbye again,                                                                
    and I wish you could tell me Why do we                                                              
    always fight when I have to go?                                                                     
                                                                                                        
It seems a shame to leave you now, your lace is                                                         
soft and warm. I long to lay me down again and                                                          
hold you in my arms. I long to kiss the tears                                                           
away, give you back the smile, But other voices                                                         
beckon me, and for a little while.                                                                      
                                                                                                        
[chorus]                                                                                                
                                                                                                        
I have to go and see some friends of mine, some                                                         
that I don't know, And some that aren't familiar                                                        
with my name. It's something that's inside of                                                           
me, not hard to understand, It's anyone who'll                                                          
listen to me sing.                                                                                      
                                                                                                        
And if your hours are empty now, who am I to                                                            
blame? You think if I were always here, our love                                                        
would be the same. As it is the time we have is                                                         
worth the time alone, Lying by your side, the                                                           
greatest peace I've ever known.
