Peace at the End (Smile because it happened)
Remember the laughs
Release my hand,
I love you
but I have to go.
I have grown weary
The day was long,
I love you
but I have to go.
No battle here
Nothing lost or won,
I love you
but I have to go.
Now somewhere else
I need to be,
I love you
but I have to go.
Let the smiles
Outlive the tears,
I love you
but I have to go.
