BYGONES

WORDS & MUSIC:   Earl P. Reinhalter


         I.  you left your lover in the rain,
             water rolling off his back.
             but it seeped into his veins
             and made his movie fade to black.

    chorus:  let bygones be bygones.
             let bygones be bygones.

        II.  how can I turn the other cheek
             when you never do the same?
             how can I ever be that weak
             when I know I'm not to blame?

    chorus:  let bygones be bygones.
             let bygones be bygones.

    bridge:  let bygones be bygones -
             feels like a sacrilege.
             there's too much spilt milk
             under the bridge.
             I got all the last straws
             from all our yesterdays.
             I'm building a scarecrow
             to keep the past away.

       III.  now I'm standing in the sun.
             there's a storm cloud in your eye.
             should I fight or should I run?
             say "I do" or say goodbye?  or -

end chorus:  let bygones be bygones.
             let bygones be bygones.
             let bygones be bygones.
             let bygones be bygones.
