Before the last teardrop dries before the day turns into night Before the closing of the door when I won’t see you anymore Before the dawn of the new day when we go our separate ways It’s just time for one goodbye before the last teardrop dries We knew this day was coming we saw it long ago We knew our love had ended like the melting of the snow But it’s hard to finally say the cold hard facts of life To turn the page and start again when it cuts just like a knife You looked away the moment came and I began to cry There’s not much else to do or say our love has simply died Before the last teardrop dries before the day turns into night Before the closing of the door when I won’t see you anymore Before the dawn of the new day when we go our separate ways It’s just time for one goodbye before the last teardrop dries It’s just time for one goodbye before the last teardrop dries
