In the Time it Takes to Say Goodbye
In the time it takes
to breathe a sigh
In the time it takes
to close both eyes
In the time it takes
to draw a breath
In the time it takes
to get undressed
In the time it takes
a clock to stop
In the time it takes
to pick a lock
In the time it takes
to kiss her breasts
in the time it takes
to lift her dress
In the time it takes
to form a smile
in the time it takes
to wait a while
In the time it takes
to make a wish
in the time it takes
to blow a kiss
In the time it takes
to wonder why
is the time it takes
to say goodbye
