Come on now,

do honestly expect me to leave?

We've weathered so much,

it has created a bond in us.

I never wanted this to happen,

I never wanted to get so close,

but life has its own rules

and I won't ignore them.

We know each other so well

I can tell what you're thinking now

I can sense the fear

but just fall into my open arms.

I never wanted it to end this way

I'm too independent for that

but we can't pretend it never happened,

will you at least admit that?

We've gone through too much

for me to give up now

and everything will fall away

when we embrace.
