Having to Say Goodbye

Having to say goodbye was the worst thing I ever had to do
Having to turn my back and walk away from you
I must have died a thousand deaths that day
You know that I loved you in every single possible way
I know that you couldn’t have seen too much in me
I’m sorry I wasn’t all that you wanted me to be
I guess I could have done better, if I really tried
But the harder I worked at it, the more it made me want to cry
I know that I disappointed you in a lot of ways
And now I look back and count all the days
The days when it was just us, you and me forever
You once told me that we would always be together
I never forgot a single thing about you
And I sometimes ask myself if you remember me too
Sometimes I wouldn’t even be able to guess
If you ever even thought of me, but maybe it’s for the very best
Who really knows anymore, I know that I sure don’t
And I know that even in a million years, I still won’t
I remember all the nights that we spent together
I always wished that they’d last forever
But I guess I was just plain stupid, because it never came true
And it just made it that much worse when I had to say goodbye to you
I really wonder what it would be like if you were still here
I know I’d be happier, without anything to fear
What I would do to just be in your arms once more
Instead of having to sit and watch as you turned and walked out the door
But as the tears rolled down my cheeks, I didn’t know what to say
I just hoped and prayed that you’d soon come back someday
And if you never did, I wouldn’t know what to do
I’d lay awake all night in my bed, just thinking of you
I’d lay and cry a million sorrowful tears
Just to let someone know that I wanted you to be near
I’d show everyone how much you’re being missed
All of them thought our love didn’t really exist
Boy were they really wrong indeed
I could’ve given you everything you’d ever need
I guess fate turned out to have a different plan
Maybe even way back when it all first began
I hated having to say goodbye
It made me want to lay down and die
But somehow I found the strength to be strong
And knew that our love would always last long
And I’m waiting for you to come back someday
Before the rest of our love finally drifts away
But until that day comes, in the dark I will continue to lye
Regretting that very day, I had to say goodbye
