In the Time it Takes to Say Goodbye

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
