Before the last teardrop dries before the day turns into night
Before the closing of the door when I won’t see you anymore
Before the dawn of the new day when we go our separate ways
It’s just time for one goodbye before the last teardrop dries

We knew this day was coming we saw it long ago
We knew our love had ended like the melting of the snow
But it’s hard to finally say the cold hard facts of life
To turn the page and start again when it cuts just like a knife

You looked away the moment came and I began to cry
There’s not much else to do or say our love has simply died
Before the last teardrop dries before the day turns into night
Before the closing of the door when I won’t see you anymore
Before the dawn of the new day when we go our separate ways
It’s just time for one goodbye before the last teardrop dries
It’s just time for one goodbye before the last teardrop dries
