I'M NOT READY

i know our meetings with the counselor aren't going very well
you haven't come right out and said so, but darlin', i can tell
when i hold you close, you're so far away
seems you're just this near to leavin', but i gotta make you stay

   i'm not ready for goodbye
   we're not over in my heart
   i love everything about you
   i still need you in my arms
   if i lose you there'll be nothing left of me
   i'm not ready for you to be.... just a memory.

last night i saw you turning scrapbook pages on the bed
don't think i didn't notice the tear you shed
i can't bear to have the future... just faded photographs
a love too quickly buried with a needless epitaph

   i'm not ready for goodbye
   we're not over in my heart
   i love everything about you
   i still need you in my arms
   if i lose you there'll be nothing left of me
   i'm not ready for you to be.... just a memory.


a little time
a lot of love
a prayer for help
baby, i forgive you
won't you just forgive yourself?

   i'm not ready for goodbye
   we're not over in my heart
   i love everything about you
   i still need you in my arms
   if i lose you there'll be nothing left of me
   i'm not ready for you to be just a memory.
   i'm not ready for you to be just a memory.
