I'm walking on asphalt
coming home at about four
just kicking up rocks crumpling a note
wondering if I lost my chance with her
It will be too late
I know there's nothing else to do
yet I still contemplate
how I can finally tell you
I swing the door open
and hear a phone ring
I answer it hopeful
but it's just telemarketing
I left the door open a little bit
I saw a slight light show
then I ran outside quick
to tell her the truth before she goes
My heart racing as are my legs,
I think about what to say
less than my crumpled note by her unopened
yet more than the words I'll leave unspoken
"I love you more than words can say
and will be there for you always
You're not alone in this world,
you're not ever uncared for alright
I'm not ever leaving you're side
live for us and know you're my world..."
I at last got to her place,
saw the Uhaul by the front gate
I melt at the sight of her sweet face
maybe, just maybe it's not too late
I hugged her for some time
she asked me "what's wrong?"
I said, "nothing, I just.."
and my words stumbled along
"..I'm going to miss you alright."
I said without confessing what I must
after small talk in delaying her leave so much
she became cold so I gave her my sweater
I told her goodbye...and asked to keep in touch
as I walked away, she reached in my pocket and read a letter
"Why is it each chance I get I let away?
After all we been through she's always been my everything
There's no way I can tell her by words I say
Never going to let her read this writing
Why can't I just say it?
today I still didn't...
it was my only time
last chance to say goodbyes
now that she's moving I can't
but if I could I'd say that...
I love you more than words can say
and will be there for you always
You're not alone in this world,
you're not ever uncared for alright
I'm not ever leaving you're side
live for us and know you're my world...
I love you, missing you, needing you
always felt there was a lifelong us too
I just couldn't cross our line of friendship yet was hoping,
that you could finally know my words unspoken..."
