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.
