The Last Goodbye
The tears keep flowing down my face
There's a hole in my heart that took your place
I don't know what happened, it was over so fast
I was hoping and praying this feeling would last
You walked away without a single look back
You took all colors from my life and left only black
When we began, I never knew there would be an end
I've thought about writing letters I would never send
But I know they would be left unread
I keep remembering all we did and everything you said
There was never any promises spoken
Nothing but my heart was broken
I can still see you as you walked away
My heart was breaking but I wouldn't beg you to stay
I can still hear your voice and feel your arms around me
I wanted you here, but I knew you had to be free
I don't know if the pain that you caused will ever fade
Or if I will ever forget the memories we made
I look up into the night sky and see the stars
I realize then that I will have to love you from afar
I truly doubt you will ever feel the same
We started a fire and I alone am left to put out the flame
I thought we had a love so clean and pure
You left me with heartache and you're the only cure
I try not to think of you holding another
When I want so badly for us to be together
I have never felt so lost and alone
I wish I could have a heart of solid stone
I lay awake and listen to the falling rain
I'm not sure I will be able to survive this pain
I wish you could just walk up and say a simple hello
But I seem to be destined for a heart that is hollow
We could have made together, a wonderful life
But instead you stabbed me in the heart with a knife
I can still taste your name on my lips
I try not to reach for you with my fingertips
I was hoping that you could have been my soul mate
But I guess it was not meant to be,it was not my fate
I have no idea how I fell for you so fast and hard
Or even imagine how I was so easy for you to discard
I try not to show you the tears I cry
Or let you know I wish I could curl up and die
How will life ever again seem worthwhile
I don't remember how to smile
I try to put on a show and be brave
But it's so very hard when it's only you I crave
I know you don't love me, I can see it in your eyes
And I know there is no point in asking you why
I just want you to know that you'll always carry a piece of me
No matter where you go or where you may be
Just let me be with these tears I cry
I guess this is truly the last goodbye
