Say My Goodbyes
Tears from heaven I cry
Needing you so much
I wish you were here
Lying next to me
Calling out your name in
My dreams
Only to awaken
To emptiness
All the memories
Aren't enough
To escape this loneliness
I feel inside
Why did you have to go
Leaving me feeling abandon
In this life to survive without
Your smile and your grace
To see me through the
Lonely nights
I reach out for you, embracing empty air
Come back to me
If only for a few chances
To hold you close to my heart for one last time
Say my goodbyes
To look into your eyes
Watch you catch my tears in
Your hand
I need this one last time
To set me free
So I can breathe again
I look over to where you should
Be sitting and run my
Hand across the vastness
Of my heart I don't blame you
For not saying goodbye
It wasn't in the stars
Still I miss you
Wish you were here
To hear your laugh
Now all that is gone
And I'm alone with my
Thoughts to keep me warm
Still I'm cold
I'm not being held in your arms
One last kiss is all I ask
Never to have your lips pressed
Against mine again I can't envision
I miss you this is my goodbye
Someday we'll meet again in
A different place
I'll welcome you as if you
Never left
I miss you I'll see you
Soon
