I was wrong.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
Move along,
towards the never ending place
I’ll be gone
and you’ll be happier this way
with a memory
in the place of a tragedy.
We were young
and time so quickly stole our charms
things were done
that were never meant to harm,
but here we are,
there we were
I guess that’s gone
down the spiral of good-bye
we had the time of our lives.
I only hope you can love me
when I’m gone.
I only hope that I’ve fixed
what I did wrong.
I only hope that I linger
in your heart
one more touch,
one more whisper
in the dark.
We played our lives out
the only way we knew how
and one of us
would be the first
to leave the here and now.
I hope that you know
I loved you
as much as time allowed.
As my candle flickers out
your name still in my mouth.
Don’t cry
too much
my love.
I won’t be far
above.
I’ll stay
as close
as I can.
I’ll be
your ghost
in the end.
Time only takes us apart.
We’ve tried to live
from the start.
Hold me,
forgive me,
I’m gone.
We’ll always have infinity,
our love will live on.
