Default a tragic ending

goodbye my almost lover
goodbye my almost friend

we just don’t fit together
this is the beginning of the end

I keep on trying to reach you
To touch your heart
Sadly I do not yet have a model start
I’m learning love from a viewscreen
Why can’t I see
That after all this sadness
I can’t be me

And what a tragic ending
One I can’t explain
But you would understand
If you knew the range
A mother in the earth
Four years gone by
Still I glimpse in there
A grief that will not die

Advance to the finish
Cross the line
I’ll stand at the exit
And scream as you fly by

Can’t keep this feeling quiet
That time is leaving
If I don’t keep on trying
Sooner or later
This boy will leave
To chase his own dreams
Where will that leave me?

And what a tragic ending
One I can’t explain
But you would understand
If you knew the range
A mother in the earth
Four years gone by
Still I glimpse in there
A grief that will not die

first verse needs some work cuz i wrote it to the tune of "almost lover" by a fine frenzy and cribbed some lines from her originally.

italic lines from a fine frenzy's "almost lover".
