OUR GOODBYE
Because I love you, it feels like it was only yesterday,
You looked into my eyes and I told you to stay.
Because I love you I’d get nervous around you,
I didn’t know what to say or what to do.
Because I love you I wanted to be in your arms all night,
Your hold made me feel safe and tight.
Because I love you I’ll always think about us,
Because I love you I won’t hold you back,
I know you want to get up, leave, and pack.
Because I love you my eyes fill up with tears,
I continue thinking back to all the years.
Because I love you as I watch you walk away,
I want to look at you and say…
Because I love you,
I will send you on your way,
I’ll try my best to be okay.
I’ll watch you walk out of the door as you leave,
But I want you to be happy so Ill set you free.
Because I love you, I won’t say that I love you,
I’ll just hug you so I don’t keep you back and wipe the tears I cry,
This is our goodbye.
