You left without saying a word

Wouldn’t give it one more try.

You couldn’t even say goodbye

Giving up, saying you were sick of the pain

The one battle I couldn’t find a way to fight for you

No matter how hard I tried

The last night I was with you.

I held your hand close to my heart

Whispered in your ear that everything would be fine

The darkness of night couldn’t last forever

It seemed I was wrong.

Today your sleep is eternal.

Maybe if I had stayed the night with you

I could have stopped what you did.

If I held you in my arms one more time

You could have believed in my love for you
