A Proper Ending? (3:11)

for AD



such an uncommon way
to be let go:
(you say)
“I love you,
I love you,
I love you,
but I can’t stay”

some think me foolish
to take your word
(I say)
“I really,
I really,
I really
do understand”

so, go,
live,
be everything
that you’ve wanted to be,
and know
you have
my love

I’ll always be happy
to have known you
(I say)
“I cherish,
I cherish,
I’ll cherish
each and every day”

so, go,
live,
be everything
that you’ve wanted to be,
and know
you have
my love

it’s so hard to say
that I’ll leave things like this
or ever give up
so easily
but something in me
says to trust what you say
and let go of my
fantasies

so, go,
live,
be everything
that you’ve wanted to be,
and know
you have
my love

just know
you have
my love
