Goodbye

As the day fades to darkness
my happiness slowly fades to sadness
because tomorrow will be a brand new day
but it’s without you there in any way

Oh! How my chest feels so heavy; as my head feels so alone
To live one single day without you; scares me to the bone
How I wish to hold you forever and to let time to just stand still
I’ve never met this kind pain nor even thought, it could be this real

Because I believed in love all-heartedly
But here I am, stuck, in an utter misery
not knowing if I’d ever be fine again or if I could ever be “Me”
I just believe that “faith” could somehow set me free

So “Goodbye” I am preparing myself to say
Before this lonely night becomes a day
But allow me to capture this moment if I may
For tonight I will dream of you and there I will make you stay
