Jere Shea - Farewell Letter lyrics

[CLARA] Giorgio I am writing to you, my angel Though not long since you've been gone With a most unhappy heart Because in truth, as time goes on I think of nothing else but you And us Oh my love, my sweet, you've changed I've watched you change You're not the man I thought I knew At times these past few days together I would wonder whether you were here Really here with me I thought was I naïve To believe We'd continue year by year Is it over forever? (spoken) When my son is older, when he goes off to school, there is the chance for us to be together. Will you wait for me, Giorgio? I have to know. We both have to know [GIORGIO] Just another love story A temporary love story I thought we had more We had something more Than any other love story Is this what you call love? This logical and sensible Practical arrangement This foregone conclusion You think that this is love? [CLARA] No one is to blame But it needn't end the same We had More Than any other love story All that happiness We had then We can have that happiness Once again [GIORGIO] Love isn't so convenient Love isn't something scheduled in advance Not something guaranteed You'll need, for fear it may pa** you by You have to take a chance You can't just try it out What's love unless it's unconditional? Love doesn't give a damn about tomorrow And neither do I! [CLARA] All that happiness In the past That was not just happiness Love was in that happiness That's why it will last I thought I knew what love was I didn't know that love was a complication We'll take it in our stride You decide We could have everything I want you more than anything To wait is nothing We're young and time is nothing Nothing Nothing [GIORGIO] It was mine It was yours; you were mine Love is more; I want more I thought I knew what love was I do know that it's not a negotiation What we had Wasn't bad How sad Then what we have is nothing Nothing
