The moonlight bright upon my face
As we hold each other's hand
Snuggled tight in your embrace
Staying glad as best I can
I feel the beating of your heart
It warms me to the bone
But when you leave
The tears will start
And once again, I'll be alone
Already the thought
Has brought my eyes
To water with lonely pain
Because the thought of you
Not here with me
Takes me to the break of sane
My conscience grows more weary
Through this journey that we call life
My fortune's faded deep within me
Joined by deep dispair and strife
More longing have I ever
To want you here with me
But I know that I shall never
Be the girl you want me to be
For I cannot stay beside you
After tonight's parting with me
I cannot follow where you will go
Or be where you want me to be
So as you leave my arms tonight
Just know how much
You'll be missed
My tears will explain
All my goodbyes
My sorrow, in an empty kiss
My love for you will never change
Over the years, I'll still think of you
And all the times
That we have shared
To this dying love, so true
My deepest woes you shall carry
My despairing cries, you'll keep
For one last goodbye
With a passionate hug
Is all I shall keep with me...
