A Final Goodbye
If I could meet you for one last time
I'd smile through the pain of losing you
As my tears start to fall, I'd look away
You're leaving, I understand you need to
I just need this last goodbye from you
This last memory of you I'll hold forever
I'll be a distant memory you never revisit
So I wish you the best in all you endeavor
My eyes would etch you forever into memory
Before you say nothing and quietly walk away
You head off in search of what lies ahead
as I do my best to live in our yesterday
No hug to say goodbye or a single word
Just a thick and heavy silence fills the air
I watch you walk away, praying you'll turn around
You don't even look back because you no longer care
As you depart and chase your happiness
My love I truly hope your future is bright
If I never love again I'll accept it gladly
I'll have you my last love every sleepless night.
