Goodbye

sometimes you have to write it down to realise how you really feel

You stand so close beside me
You want to stay I know
I can feel your anticipation
That I might tell you not to go.

I know your eyes search for mine
But I'm afraid of what i'll see
All your hopes and plans for us
The future that can never be.

Your hand on my arm, your breath on my neck
Suddenly it's so hard to breathe
I can't stand to watch your heart break
When I tell you, you have to leave.

You kiss me softly before you go
And I wonder if I'm wrong
I remember every moment
But forever's just too long.
