20 November 2012

Where did you go, old friend of mine? I turned and you were gone. I wondered if you'd ever come back Or if you had really moved on

Losing my mind, my tender heart I searched for you desperately You'd decided to go but I couldn't stop My life was ablaze with worry

It burned inside me, for many days This longing to rediscover youth The days we spent as young children But now I see the truth

Holding on to you, my shooting star Will only bring us down I'd rather be a cosmic angel Than wear that broken crown

They say that if you love someone You ought to let them go So, my friend, you're free from me The curtain has closed on our show

I'm at peace, watching you fly I know it's the right thing to do But deep inside I pray you remember That I will always love you.
