written by J.D. Souther It hurts to say goodbye And when the words are going by The wind can blow them right back in your eye You can almost see it Time will let you know And when you turn around to go The aching in your heart begins to show You can almost see it You can almost see it You can almost see it You can almost see it going by So you take another train But the tracks all look the same They run around in circles like a game You can almost see it I can almost see it I can almost see it I can almost see it going by
