It Would Be Wrong To Write

(Dean Madonia)
Words And Music by Scott Avery
it would be wrong
to write
(Scott Avery)

I sat in your favorite chair
Here by the tear-spotted moon
And tried to write
³Baby, I¹m sorry We¹ll run away soon²
But the words wouldn¹t leave the pen
The song stayed unwritten all night

ŒCause it would be wrong to write
It would be right to leave
Trying to save this love
Would only deceive you and me
It would be wrong to fight
For what will only die
And it would be wrong
To write anything but goodbye

We live in the bittersweet
Where beauty just burns away fast
One perfect red rose, a summer day hurryin¹ past
And I¹d write a forever song
And sing it with all of my might

But it would be wrong to write
It would be right to leave
Trying to save this love
Would only deceive you and me
It would be wrong to fight
For what will only die
And it would be wrong
To write ...

The night is a coward
It hides from the sun
If I had the power
I¹d rise with the dawn
Summon the miracle
Keep us from comin¹ undone

But I can¹t hold back this night
Only a fool would try
And it would be wrong
To write anything but goodbye
