“Good Bye” Bitstream Dream Single (2001)

Some time ago and far away
I met a boy who could make me smile
We fell in love on that fateful day
And I stayed for a little while
But all dreams must end
And this was no exception
I’d like to think that we’re still friends
That’s just my perception

I had to leave and come back home
So goodbye, Steve
I hope you make it on your own
Good bye, good bye

— by Anji Bee (BMI)

Some time ago and far away
(Far away)
I met a boy who could make me smile
(Make me smile)
We fell in love on that fateful day
And I stayed for a little while
But all dreams must end
(They end)
And this was no exception
(They end)
I’d like to think that we’re still friends
That’s just my perception

I had to leave and come back home
(Home)
So goodbye Steve
I hope you make it on your own
(Good bye, good bye, good bye)
I hope you make it on your own
(Good bye, good bye, good bye)

You know I care
(I care)
I always will
(I always will)
Though I’m not there
I hope you sense me still
(Like I do you)
I might not’ve been fair
(Unfair)
To us, my dear
(To us, my dear)
But I just couldn’t shake the fear
(The fear, fear, fear)

I still love you, though I had to go…
