I kissed your lips, I touched your face
Brushed the hair away from your eyes
Standing here watching you make’s me realise
How much you mean to me and how much I’ll miss you
It seems like only yesterday. But from the start I knew.
The days the nights are all indelibly imprinted in my mind
So many special times will now be left behind
When you go your way and I go mine.
Morning walks, breakfast on the beach,
Ringing you at work, wanting always to keep you just within my reach,
The time your mother caught us when she thought that I’d gone home.
So many memories but soon I’ll be alone.
I thought our love would last forever
The two of us into old age, hand in hand together
But life isn’t always what you expect or want
At least it won’t be a total loss we’ll still be friends
Like a branch in a heavy storm I won’t break I’ll just bend
Hoping some day, some way, what was will be again
And you’ll come back to me, but 'til then I'll keep you as my friend.
