We let each other slip away
Minute by minute, day by day
Not knowing how to say
That we wanted things to be that way

You loved me, I know it
But you couldn't show it
I loved you, unconditionally
But there was no way to make you see

Our lives took different paths
But I could never forget your laugh
Your wonderful smile, the way you'd sigh
And look at me so beautifully

Now you're gone and I'm all alone
No where on this earth to call my home
Beside myself, not knowing what to do
Why did it have to be you?


I could have spent my life
With you in my arms, night after night
I could have woken to your kiss
It would have been eternal bliss

But we were both too young
Too stubborn and dumb
And I'm left to carry on
Now that you are gone
