Why We Said Goodbye

I remember Sunday mornings, walking on the beach And that place we'd stop for breakfast with the old red vinyl seats The hours of the tide chart The way the sunlight danced upon your face That antique roller coaster you just had to ride I remember how you laughed at the terror in my eyes The color and the detail Just like it was yesterday And I remember how I broke down, the night my father died I didn't have to tell you, you just held me while I cried You're sewn into the fabric, the pieces of my life And I just can't remember why we said goodbye Up and down this boardwalk lonely people sit I know it wasn't perfect but nothin' ever is The sails out in the harbor Are searching for the wind I just had to call you, I had to hear your voice And tell you I still love you, we still have a choice You're sewn into the fabric, the pieces of my life And I just can't remember why we said goodbye Everything I do leads me back to you I know I just can't let us go There must have been a reason, but I can't remember now I know if I could hold you we would work it out You're sewn into the fabric the pieces of my life And girl, let's give it one more try I just can't remember why we said goodbye
