adieu


why is it so hard to die

never before have I loved the way that I love you 

but I would never want to hurt you 

and so my little one, I must say adieu

you did everything you could, my darling

you gave me all of your love and kept my days bright

never doubt my love for you 

I love you but I must say adieu

i’ll admit that i’m not ready to die

still young and full of life 

but you are younger my little one

which makes it all the more difficult

why is it so hard to die 

it’s because you’re watching me

i’ll see you again my little love 

but for now I must say adieu.
