I know that you’re hurting now
Tears fall from your eyes
Yet I never meant to make you cry
Just wanted to say farewell goodbye…

As I turned to leave walk out your life
My own tears fell shooting stars in the night
Still I smiled as they run down my face
For I knew I’d come back to you
You’re arms opened wide…

All the memories I held inside
I’d travel to them, as I lay asleep at night
a thousand dreams brought to life by you
Always ending with your arms opened wide…

So many years since I’ve reopened my heart
Travelled back to the memories of you
Hoping one day you’re arms would close
With me locked in-between lips pressed against yours…

Thinking back to the start of my pain
I acted so distantly towards the end
Hiding my feelings within my heart
Leaving you fearing you never felt the same
What I felt deep down inside
A love that still has never run dry…

Now in my old age ive rotted away
But still the memories of you
Stay forever in my mind
Never decaying over years over time…

I breathe my last breath
Kiss the world goodbye
Fade into the light that surrounds
Travel into your open arms tonight…

a thousand dreams once not spoken
Springing to life as I stay in your arms
Finally resting in our hearts
Eternal love forever in heaven above…
