My earth is slowly caving in
My heart incased in stone
The sweet Lord cannot take you now
For all the love that's grown

To love you more than God loves man
Our mission did suceed
And while I watch you slip away
My hope begins to bleed

Through all my heart aches, there you were
To catch my sorrow tears
To hold me when my soul was lost
And cure my pain and darkest fears

Over time the burn has cooled
When it should've singed me black
Knowledge of your love for me
Seemed to fill the slack

But everything is different now
The sting is tenfold worse
For now it's you that's dying
It's unfolding like a curse

If you are gone, no one is here
To tell me it's okay
That they'll be there for me always
And their love is here to stay

It was always you and only you
Who eased my hurt within
Others tried and others failed
My selfishness is drenched in sin

I'm begging you, don't leave me now
You simply mean too much
I cannot stand to lose someone
Whos love is a gentle touch

Don't leave me now, I need you
Now's when I need you most
I'm watching you, the one I love
Drift far off from the coast

I know you'll always be there
You've told me this before
But it doesn't heal the tattered faith
I'm ripping more and more

It isn't fair, it isn't sane
But yet, it is to be
The person that I've loved so long
Just can't be there for me

My naivety was ignorant
I thought you'd never go
That you'd always be there by my side
Though I knew it wasn't so

I'll try my best to live my life
Though you won't be there to share
For I know you'd be unhappy
If I'd lost all will to care

I miss you more than I can tell
And yet, you've yet to leave
I'm not sure I'll get over this
Without tears on my sleeve

You told me it's okay to cry
I have to let it out
You've given me the will to live
And what living is about

To live life to its fullest
And to love with every chance
Enjoy each lasting moment
Not to dread with every glance

Love is an amazing gift
For anyone who tries
And though hearts will be broken
It's the love that never dies

I must go on without you now
Though it hurts me so to say
I'll remember you each moment
And every passing day

I've learned from you that life goes on
And won't leave you behind
So I must keep with the rhythm
Go against my troubled mind

Don't worry, I'll be happy soon
And I won't forget your face
I'll remember all the times we shared
In my heart you have a place

My love for you will never die
However long I live
I shall await to reunite
To share my heart and give

It's time for me to let you go
I guess I'll say goodbye
And because you are to leave me now
It seems my place to cry

Just one last hug and long embrace
As it seems it's my last chance
Just know I'll always love you
I won't pass without a glance...
