The Prelude - Carrie Newcomer

It’s a prelude to goodbye

When you close your eyes

You didn’t see the signs Maybe I’m right, maybe I’m wrong

Maybe I thought I had met my match

But maybe I’m not that strong

I’m all right I’m just fine

I’ve been hurt harder than I’ve been hurt this time

It’s a shame you can’t take words back

Cause they hang in the air, they linger and that’s a fact

Words can be arrows, they can be windows

They can do so very much of mean so very little

Maybe I’m just amazed that I could feel thins hard

Maybe when I fall these days, I only fall so far

It’s a way of letting go, when you steel yourself

For some kind of trouble, and cut your losses low

And you smile like it’s no big deal

Like it’s one more misjudgment

In the way that you thought you’d feel

But I’m not finished I’m not done

Maybe I’ve just started, maybe I’m only numb

Maybe I’m just amazed that I could feel this hard

Maybe when I fall these days

I only fall so far
