Goodnight:
I remember long ago when your voice always answered the phone
It was always quite clear just how you felt just by the tone
And so long ago i am not sure if I would ever have known
Just how quiet it got and how it became to be not one of your own
It was our first Christmas day together I remember you most
All the sparkles in your eyes, the lights, and candle lit posts
I get lost in myself when I remember, and think of that now all alone
As the sparkles and the old flames fade away like unwanted ghosts
It seemed like yesterday everything was brand new and felt right
And not long ago it was you, that I held, and loved thru the night
Now everything has become so cold and dull never too bright
Since the last time I heard your voice on the phone, saying goodnight
