We always come full circle

When nights become too long

I call you when you're crying

And trying to be too strong

And trying to be too strong



But I can't take you with me

You never stand the pace

You tell me that you miss me

And long to see my face

And long to see my face



And who knows why

Who knows why

We always say goodbye

We always have to say goodbye



You tell me about hte family

About the folks back home

You tell me that you miss me

On long distance phone

Late at night on the phone

I tell you about the concerts

I tell you about the crowds

I tell you about the band played

A little bit too loud

Everything's too loud



And who knows why

Who knows why

We always say goodbye

We always have to say goodbye



Always come full circle

When nights become too long

You tell me how you miss me

And I tell you to be strong

I say keep on being strong
