I'm on my Way, Away

by Sierra Rae   Apr 6, 2004


I know you love me
but I don't see you coming,
so I'll come to you;
I'm on my way.

I see you standing there;
so close but untouchable;
I need to hold you now, so
I'm on my way.

I know your kiss;
still remember tasting it on my lips;
baby how much I want that again;
I'm on my way.

I hear your voice;
how perfect it sounds;
it's pulling me closer;
I'm on my way.

I smell your cologne,
and I melt to the floor;
you left me so exstatic, but now
I'm on my way.

I can still feel your arms,
you trapt me with a hug;
I'd die to feel your arms again, so of course
I'm on my way.

I see you again, but hear someone else's voice;
I can smell a different perfume, and I know I made the wrong choice.
I turn away and a tear rolls down, I taste it on my lips;
I'm on my way, away.

I don't have to be able to touch you,
but don't just abandon me;
I guess if we can't be friends I must leave;
I'm on my way, away.

I've moved up wind away from you;
I can't smell your sweet scent anymore;
I still have my back to you; I'm leaving;
I'm on my way, away.

She has probably dropped you because
I hear you calling;
I wanna leave you but I can't, so babe
I guess I'm on my way.

Only a moment until I can taste your kiss;
I can still only see you, yet I already taste happiness;
I'm almost there, wait for me.
I'm on my way.

I see you smile at me,
for a moment everything is right;
Then I see her coming back and bow my head in defeat.
I'm on my way, away.

It's hurt me so bad, leaving at first, then coming back, and leaving again;
I don't want to look at you, or hear your perfect voice;
I'm leaving you, and hopefully never coming back;
I?m on my way, away.

I know I'll get better; time heals all wounds;
but how long is it going to take?
I'll never forget you completely but just know this;
I'm finally on my way, away.
