Analysis of Kiss goodbye
You didn't have to kiss me goodbye
I loved you more than stars in the sky
I'm thanking you for my heart
Before your eyes begin to start
I wish that I could kiss your cheek
For there are no words that I could speak
To fulfill you when you've become weak
But I give you my heart
And take your dove
I watch it fly high above me in the sky
When you'd come to visit me
Day after day.
