I let go

The day you told me goodbye
brought tears to my eyes,my
heart still aches,oh the pain
still lingers,still I care.
 

I couldn't change your mind,
an I didn't want to leave things
unsaid or done,but your pride
got in your way,still it hurts.
 

I wanted you to know how deeply
you had me in love with you,falling
out of love with you  was diffecult,
I still miss your scent,your touch,
your kiss.
 

I was to blind to see your heart was
someone else,I thought no matter
what we could always be friends,now
theres another in your life and the friendship
has ended,time will forget the hurt,I'm still
in love.
 

I let you go so someone else can  have
your love,she lights the eyes I once
loved it was long ago,it is so good
to see you smile a thousand times,you
used to do that,I love you an nothing
will ever change that,but I had to
let you go.
