This song is dedicated to my one friend to whom I may have let down by not marrying her. Rememer, some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.
-----
Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what's mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

Goodness... today I was so anxious to get back from work, just so I could get home and play my James Blunt CD. I missed listening to this song "Goodbye my Lover.." One of my favorite tracks. I think these words mean so much to anyone who has been in & out of love some point in their life.
Sigghhhhhhhh :-)
I love James Blunt! Can I say it enough?

i share exactly the same sentiments. Even i was anxious to get his songs onto my ipod so i could listen to them on my way to work. I wish i could play them on my computer at work because his words are very powerful and gets me motivated!
Don't worry about the spelling mistakes...and yes, I keep on changing my templates because I still havent found the ideal template that would convey who Life of Mansur is!
just out of curiosity...who was this girl? seems like you've had a major heartbreak by not marrying this girl. it would make for an interesting post about your desire for marriage and why it didnt work out.
ur cuz,
