Letting You Go, But Not Our Love
I stand alone, on a sandy beach
My tears flowing into the sea,
Because I know you are out of reach
And no longer here with me.
The fact is that you will never return
And I can’t trade anything to get you back too;
I just have to learn
To go on in life, without you.
It is not as easy as I say
As millions of memories together we share
Which I can’t forget any day
There are as many as the drops in the sea I now stare.
I haven’t regained interest in anything,
It has been already more than a year.
Times were so disturbing you know
Without my love so dear.
I reveal my sorrow to the people who care
You can’t even do that too,
As I can’t see you I think I wasn’t aware
That it might be so hard for you.
But now you just worry of me,
You might be watching me as is the moon,
Wherever you are, happy I want you to be
And for that I promise, happy I will be soon.
You know every problem, with which I’ve dealt,
Nothing from you I can hide.
I’ve realized that love isn’t to be seen, it is to be felt
That your love is within me though not at my side.
People say that you are gone
Though you only can’t be seen.
What they say is really wrong
You are around as you’ve always been.
I never let my tears fall to the ground,
So I usually come down to the shore.
As I don’t want them to reach you,
That will only hurt you more.
On me, all have lost hope.
That on my life I’ve given up, I don’t want you to regret
So with my failures I’ve learnt to cope
And am ready to deal with success.
I’m sorry to keep you here and for now you can go,
When sometimes you come to visit you will see.
I’ll make you smile so much you know
By being the old me.
I don’t have any problem with God at all
That he took you away from life’s race,
For all that I know
Is that now you are in a better place.
I have decided to head back now, to stop my tears,
From now on I’ll remember you as my wonderful memory.
I’ll laugh, I’ll cry, I’ll overcome my fears
But know that I’ll love you for eternity.
