Goodbye

I take a breath, and close my eyes
There's so many things, I never realized
All this time, I've been scared to let go
The pain I feel, you'll never know
The day you left, part of me left too
I'm dyeing inside, missing you
I think of you constantly, every single day
I miss you so much, in every way
But I've got to let go, I have to say goodbye
Because holding on to you, is killing me inside
I'll keep our memories, locked in my heart
That way, we'll never really part
So I take a breath, and I close my eyes
I love you daddy, but this is goodbye
