An Unfair Farewell

Do not speak i see the fear Show a smile wipe off that tear Close your eyes I'll be right here Do not fret and do not speak Dry those teardrops from your cheek I will not be gone for long In case i am here is a song Strong for me i wish and pray In case you know I cannot stay In your heart i forever be See make sure you are happy Even though you can't see my face Picture mine I'll be with you anyplace If I told you this was a lie I know damn well that you would die So I say it to keep you safe Don't count sheep and do not pace Your heart is to big of a place So in the words you once told me Love is for the living and sleep is for the dead Though its true it's metaphor It leads you to another door And even though it sounds like dread I died in your heart but not your head So please wipe off that tear Though I'm gone I'll be right here
