You know how I feel for you
It's something you can't deny 
I sit here long both day and night
Just trying not to cry...

I vision you running away from me 
My hands grasping at thin air
I see once vibrant, loving eyes 
turned to a dark and distant stare...

Too many mistakes have I made
And too many times I've cried
and with you far away from me 
something in me has died...

As I sit and think it amazes me 
that though we are apart
I know I'll always love you~
You, the keeper of my heart!

I truly want your happiness 
That's why I'm letting go
Though selfishly I want you here with me 
because I love you so...

I know you must be hurting too~ 
I know you long to reach for me 
But my gift to you my Darling 
is that I set you free...

So you have your wings now baby~ 
Spread them fast and fly away 
Just know you take my heart with you 
Forever And Always!
