Before the GoodBye

I'll tell you now
before we say goodbye
I want you to know
how much you mean to me

I'll tell you now
before i say goodbye
I hope i have shown in ways that you could see
that i wish there could have been
a you and me

You've dominated my thoughts a long time now
I've been wanting to pour out my heart
but I wasn't sure how
I'll always love the way you laugh
and write off life as a joke
how are you able to do this?
only God knows

I just want to let you know
before i close my eyes
that you've been one of
the brightest stars in my life

I love the fact that just talking about you
can completely change my mood
though I'm not really sure
if that's bad or good

the truth is that I'm afraid to let you know
I fear the feelings I have
you will never show
but the thing that scares me most of all
is that you won't be there to catch me
if I fall

So as we say this goodbye
my only wish is to see you before I die
I pray that you future is brightly lit
even if I'm never a part of it


And no matter how far you go
I will always love you
And I'll miss you
and the funny things you say
I'll remember everyday
in a hundred different ways

I'll miss the days you spent with me
even though you've been set free
you will forever be in my memory

So now
as I say my final goodbye
I can only hope to see you
before I die
