Regret

I didn't know you'd gone away I heard it from another, They said you went because of me I didn't mean to smother. I knew your spirit should be free But couldn't let you go, I needed you to be with me I'm sorry. Did you know. They said you travelled here and there But never really found The things that you were looking for But I was still around. They said that you were coming back To always be with me, But something happened on the way That no-one could foresee. If only I had persevered And you'd not gone away, You never would have found yourself But you'd still be here today.
