Letting Go

    Standing tall before me a beacon in the night
    Giving me help when I could not fight
    Straining to shine as the storm clouds loomed
    Oh, without you I am doomed

    Who can I talk to that will take me to heart
    Give me unconditional love and not tearing me apart
    You are the only one who understands and cares
    To lose you would be more then I could bare

    I am sounding selfish and needy
    Maybe with you my heart is greedy
    To have you for my own is my dream
    I know it is impossible and I want to scream

    What else can I do or say
    I can not make you want to stay
    My heart is sad and sinking
    Why can't you tell me what you're thinking

    I have lost what you have given me
    Maybe it was not meant to be
    I am letting you go with much sorrow
    And hoping for a better tomorrow

    Like the stars twinkling in the sky
    I know this is not a final good bye
    For my love will always be
    Always in my heart for eternity
