>* That is not what I meant at all
>Nor thought to see a teardrop fall�
>Alas, I find my tongue too sharp-
>Too prone to criticize and harp.

>I meant no harm, and that is true-
>More so to such a one as you�

>Alas, I find that once they�re said-
>They fill the heart with nameless dread-
>And trust and confidence mistreated�
>From being hurt, have both retreated.

>Now I am feeling very small�
>I sorrow that I�ve made you cry-
>And now I fear, it is �goodbye
