They hugged goodbye
But continued to talk
Old love catching fire again
It was as if time stood still
Neither one of them wanting to leave
I watched from a distance
The way she looked at him
And then way he looked at her
It showed it all
I watched her leave him behind
And him go the other way
But them I saw her....
Turn around
And look back at him
But he didn't look back
She left a piece of her heart
In that goodbye
And he took it with him
