The Finish Line

I can see it in your eyes
I can read you like a book
You are staring at the floor
And I am too afraid to look

I almost thought
That we could make it
It hurt too much
To try and save it

Don’t tell me you love me
While you look away
It wasn’t enough
To find a reason to stay

Here we are
The finish line
And you can tell me that you love me
But you mean to say goodbye

We both
Knew the day was coming
Still just a touch of disbelief
Anyone
Could see you getting tired
Me I just never thought you’d leave

And from your lips a silence
Breaks it
A bitter pill
But I can take it

Don’t tell me you love me
While you look away
It wasn’t enough
To find a reason to stay

Here we are
The finish line
And now you tell me that you love me
But you mean to say goodbye
