Story Behind the Song
this song was a class assignment. i had to write a completely physical song w/out any emotional lines like "i felt like.." or "i wanted..." turned out to be probably the saddest song i've written so far
Lyrics
Just one word whispered in my ear, Just one word whispered in my ear
I imagined it to be so clear, Just one word whispered in my ear
It's not the breath on my skin, or the warmth of your face
Not the way your lips are so close that we're inches from embrace
That's not the way cause you still say goodbye
Just one small touch of my hand, just one small touch of my hand
Something we both seemed to understand,
Just one small touch of my hand
And it's not your rough skin, the way it seems to cross the line
Not the way I sometimes see our hands forever entwined
No that's not the way, cause you still say goodbye
Just one look, comin from your eyes,
Just one look, comin from your eyes
Always seems to take me by surprise,
Just one look, comin from your eyes
It's not the way your eyes so blue are resonating light
Not the way they seem to shine like stars that decorate the night
No that's not the way, cause you still say
No that's not the way, cause you don’t stay
No that's not the way, cause you still say goodbye
