It Won't Hurt As Much Tomorrow

This time I've really thought you this time it's goodbye

By the time you read this I'll be high up in the sky

Oh yes I'm gonna feel you in my arms for quite a while

I thought it over it won't hurt as much tomorrow

Two thousand miles away is much too far

But it's better I'll be gone because I've gone to bar

I knew we wouldn't make it a long long time ago

I know that I'll keep wanting you how much you'd never know

For you it's love be easier but for me I don't want to go

I thought it over it won't hurt as much tomorrow

Oh I thought it over it won't hurt as much tomorrow
