She Walked Away

I tried my best to hold her dear; To hold her close, to keep her near. She did her best, but wouldn’t stay. So she got up and walked away I cried that night, the night she left It was a night I’ll never forget Forever it’s etched, within my head. For all she knows, I’m laying dead. And now as I reflect upon The life we had, that won’t go on, I must forget her, evermore. She’ll not return to my door. Before I pack away my thoughts; Into the box that I just bought, I’ll stop to think just one last time Of when I thought that she was mine. Goodbye and good riddance, I say to her For causing me all this pain and hurt. Tomorrow I hope to smile the entire day At the thought of when she walked away.
