Letting Go



Its been a year since you been gone
And left my heart in vain alone
Still it feels like yesterday
When you said bye and go away

I still can see the way you smile
When you told me it'll be a while
That you'll be gone but will be back
With open arms and big embrace

That dream remains and always be
A dream that will stay with me
Alone in darkness I will stay
And think of those times we were happy

And though my heart still aches til now
The tears have stopped falling somehow
Knowing that you never will be
The one that is really for me

And though my heart had been in pain
I Never wish for you the same
Happiness and good life is more I want
To wish for you and your new love one
