A Friend In the End
Happiness, we believe is forever;
True love, will keep it together.
A person you can always call upon;
When times get tough, and you are ready to move on.
But love always seems to break your heart;
Brings two people close, then tears them apart.
A fairytale that never comes true;
Feelings lost, like my love for you.
I can't understand why I am letting you go;
Don't walk away yet, there are reasons you should know.
Love at first sight, you always made me smile;
Now, faded laughter, I haven't seen for awhile.
My first love, I will always care;
All the rough times conquered, all the moments shared.
My gut feeling, this is not meant to be;
Giving myself to you, like you never did for me.
Life will amaze you, take you by surprise;
I realize that now, so we have to say goodbye.
Moving on, the world changing now;
Wanting to tell you, but not knowing how.
This feeling I have, I can't explain why;
Time to spread my wings and learn how to fly.
Please remember, the love I use to show;
Loving you enough, knowing I must let go.
Maybe years from now we will be together again;
Living in this moment, you remain as my friend.
Catching me gently, when I finally fall;
In the end knowing, I am happy after all.
