Loss of a Loved One

I know I left you,
I just could'nt stay.
The pain was inside me
I had to get away

You say you don't understand
I had a long life to live
but I was dying inside,
I had nothing left to give.

So you say you're feeling hurt
you feel you've been betrayed
those were not my intentions
so please don't be afraid.

So when It's your time
you'll see me again.
I'll be free from the pain,
and you'll still be my best friend.
