lyrics

It was after you left
That it sunk in
The despair of saying goodbye

A little whole in my heart
It didn't make sense
The pain and joy that I felt inside

I said this couldn't be love
As reason suggested
When only three days had gone by

But I cried three times
I cried three times
I just wanted to see your eyes
I cried three times

It was a whirlwind affair
It felt so rare
As I'd never had this in my life

Comfortably sedated
It didn't feel aided
By the lies we bury inside

Easy and free
Everything I wanted it to be
You felt like a knight to my pride

So I cried three times
I cried three times
I just wanted to see your eyes
I cried three times

What would it be like
With you in my life
Halfway around the world
Well I'll never know

It's like you said
While lying in bed
All the feelings
Will just make you grow

Mostly embarrassed and sad
But the best I'd ever had
My true Feelings
I never did show

So I cried three times
I cried three times
I just wanted to see your eyes
I cried three times

Once when I left you
Once when you called
And once when I said goodbye

Afraid I'd never see you again
That we would just remain friends
And you'd be the last
To come my way

My biggest fear in life
Is I'll never look twice
And love won't
Ever stay

So I cried three times
I cried three times
I just wanted to see your eyes
I cried three times

Once when I left you
Once when you called
And once when I said goodbye

Piper Hayes Toronto, Ontario

Finding truth beyond words, rhyme, and reason; delving deep where others don't go; unraveling the many threads of time...Piper sings a bewitching tune. Her voice creeps from a small steady note to a grand booming tone. Power and presence are her appeal, and strength the name of her game. She brings a new twist to the idea of authenticity. In performance she comes alive! ... more
