You went away to catch your plane
One evening dark cloud laden night.
Pouring down cutting sheets of rain
Interfered with its timely scheduled flight.
We never got to say goodbye
I didn't make it there on time.
We had a fight before you left
And with that now that
Is a definite regret of mine.
We never got to say goodbye
Your plane I was told, had fallen from the sky.
Was struck by lightening over the ocean
It killed all loving parts of me
When I heard you died.
We never got to say goodbye
But I'm saying it now to you.
I'm asking for God's forgiveness and yours
I will always be in love with you.
