*~Going Away~*

You were given to me by life
One very fateful day
But now it's all over
Life is taking you away.

Why do you have to go?
You're the only one I need
Yet life takes you away
And makes my heart bleed.

My heart cries tears of pain
As it's strangled by sorrow
Tell me what is there to gain,
What is in store for me tomorrow?

Everyone has told me
That if you're the one for me,
Life will let you stay,
But I know that cannot be.

If it was up to you,
I'm sure you would stay.
But the choice does not lie with you
You might end up going away.

I love you too much
I can't just watch you walk away
My heart is stronger now
I do hope you're here to stay.

I'm not going to let you go
You're my dream come true.
Always and forever,
I will love you.
