It's a little too late,
To say what I wanted to say,
Because of your fate,
It was a sad and depressing day.
It was the day they told me,
The day you were gone,
I could not see,
I could not go on.
Cried for hours,
Held my friends close,
They took what was ours,
What we love the most.
But you are gone forever,
There's nothing we can do,
I will see you never,
But I will pursue.
All I want to say,
Is that I love you,
And everday I will pray,
Because love is something you cannot undo.
I will look up in the sky,
And be proud to love you,
I don't want to say good-bye,
But I know it's something I must do.
