It's so hard to be without you
I can't get you out of my mind
I have flashes of moments together
No comfort can I find...
You know how I feel for you
It's something you can't deny
I sit here long both day and night
Just trying not to cry...
I vision you running away from me
My hands grasping at thin air
I see once vibrant, loving eyes
turned to a dark and distant stare...
Too many mistakes have I made
And too many times I've cried
and with you far away from me
something in me has died...
As I sit and think it amazes me
that though we are apart
I know I'll always love you
You, the keeper of my heart!
I truly want your happiness
That's why I'm letting go
Though selfishly I want you here with me
because I love you so...
I know you must be hurting too
I know you long to reach for me
But my gift to you my Darling
is that I set you free...
So you have your wings now baby
Spread them fast and fly away
Just know you take my heart with you
Forever And Always!
