In Your Name...
I’m sorry I’m letting go
We’re both drowning below
Deep into an abyss of confusion
We’ve enjoyed every moment, but merely an illusion
Please, my one, please, baby understand
I will always be the one to hold your hand
Even if you’ll turn your back as doubt prevails
I will always see beyond your anger and wails
Forgive me, but I have to let go
The reason is of this we might never know
Baby, in your name
A martyr I became
Without regret or gain
I’m letting go, immersed in pain
Baby, in your name
I extinguish my flame
My heart will shatter forever
But your happiness I won’t sever
On this path you have to travel
Make me proud and my agony will unravel
True as always, I say “baby, I love you,
And, adieu, my one and only, adieu”
