My Last Goodbye

By the dim light 
We were standing by the road 
You were my princess I was your toad 
Laughed for a while 
Then we talked for a while 
Until it was time to leave 
And it was our one last ride 
Two months later 
By the window you looked out the pane 
Said there is no more us 
Said your last goodbye 
You left me alone with a broken heart 
Just some time and then we were apart 
Just one last kiss 
The kiss of lie 
We broke up and I still don't know why 
Two years on I linger 
Your ring still lies on my finger 
The door knocks I see your dad 
Your memories flash I remember the hatred that your dad had 
But not today.. He was soft 
He hugs me first and then pulls out a letter 
Hey love, 
I hope things are better 
I loved you a lot 
It was my health, something you couldn't have bought 
I was growing uglier day by day 
But you loved me so much,I didn't know what to say 
I thought you'd break up with me 
I was dying every passing day 
When I left you I was in tears 
But I had cancer I couldn't live for years 
So I decided I'd make a move 
Now no longer can I move 
I wish you find another girl 
Someone better.. Someone from above 
Or wait for me.. Till the next birth 
And love my parents now 
My last wish on this earth 
My last kiss it wasn't a lie 
It wasn't back then. 
But this is my last Goodbye
