Long Goodbye

I would like to say goodbye

But you will not let me speak

I tried to be strong for you

And now I am feeling weak

Now you're gone without a trace

I am left just holding space

Empty, sorry, so confused

Wiching you would show your face

I'll think only of good times

And let bad memories fade

Keep times when we were good friends

The times I can never trade

I think of you before sleep

And first thing upon waking

Losing you was a mistake

And it has left me breaking

So smile for me, in my mind

Even though I'm left behind
