When I Go

Today, when I had to leave no sad words of farewell, But when your gaze fell my heart lost will to live. I know when I go, tears reign in your eyes. I take you with me always: the smile on your lips the dancing of your hips, Joy for the rest of my days. I know when I go, tears reign in your eyes. Charmed is the happiness that binds us together, but the bound is also bitter linking our loneliness. I know when I go, tears reign in your eyes. If I find myself alone, recalling the days before we started our own story and the bows weren’t gone. I know when I go, tears reign in your eyes. Only words remain and if they are now taken by another love awaken, we would be meeting again. I know when I go, tears reign in your eyes.
