Trilogy Lyrics - Trilogy - Emerson, Lake & Palmer

I've tried to mend 

The love that ended 

Long ago although we still pretend 

Our love is surely coming to an end 

Don't waste the time you've got to love again 

We tried to lie 

But you and I 

Know better than to let each other lie 

The thought of lying to you makes me cry 

Counting up the time that's passed us by 

I've sent this letter hoping it will reach your hand 

And if it does I hope that you will understand 

That I must leave in a while 

And though I smile 

You know the smile is only there to hide 

What I'm really feeling deep inside 

Just a face where I can hang my pride 

Goodbye... 

Goodbye... 

We'll talk of places that we went 

And times that we have spent 

Together penniless and free 

You'll see the day another way 

And wake up with the sunshine 

pouring right down where you lay 

You'll love again I don't know when 

But if you do I know that 

you'll be happy in the end
