I'VE GOT TO SAY GOODBYE

TODAY IS MY PRESENT
YESTERDAY WAS MY PAST
TOMORROW IS MY FUTURE
SO WHY SHOULD I WORRY ABOUT MY PAST
BUT IT MAKES ME FEEL SO GOOD TO THINK ABOUT WHAT WE HAD
THE WAY “YOU” SMILED, THE WAY “WE” LAUGHED
THE WAY YOU WOULD COMFORT ME, WHENEVER I WAS SAD
YOU’D PUT A SMILE ON MY FACE WHENEVER I WAS MAD
I WAS SO THRILLED, SO GLAD, THAT GOD EVEN PUT ME IN YOUR LIFE
SOMETIMES I WONDER HOW IT WOULD BE, IF YOU HAD BECAME MY WIFE
BUT YOU'RE NOT, AND IT PROBABLY WON’T HAPPEN
SOME HOW IVE GOT TO MOVE ON
IS IT YOUR FAULT THAT I LEFT, OR IS IT MY FAULT THAT YOU’RE GONE?
I WISH THAT MY PIN AND MY PAD WERE REALITY
AND NOT JUST FALSE HOPES AND FALSE DREAMS
I STARTED WRITING OUT THE PLOT FOR OUR LIFE
BUT FOR SOME REASON I COULD NOT COME UP WITH A THEME
TO MOST IT WOULD SEEM THAT WHAT WE HAD WAS PHENOMENAL
YOU’RE HANDS ON MY NECK, MY HANDS ON YOUR ABDOMINAL
WE DIDN’T NEED ANY MUSIC TO DANCE, OUR LOVE SUNG A LOUD ENOUGH TUNE
I MISS MAKING LOVE ALL NIGHT LONG, AND SOMETIMES IN THE AFTERNOON
YOU ARE THE BREATH IN MY LUNGS
THE BLOOD IN MY VEINS
THAT 80PROOF LIQUIOR
THAT SWEET CHAMPAGNE
MY HOPES, MY DREAMS
MY MORNINGS, MY NIGHTS
MY HIGHS, MY LOWS
MY SPEECH, MY SIGHT
MY WANTS, MY NEEDS
MY GOOSEBUMPS, MY FEARS
I MISS THE WAY YOU TOUCHED MY FACE, AND THE WAY YOU CAUGHT MY TEARS
I FEEL IM A BETTER PERSON, SINCE THE DAY THAT WE MET
AND THE TIMES THAT WE SHARED, WAS AS GOOD AS IT GETS
BUT IVE GOT TO STAY FOCUSED, KEEP A STRONGHOLD ON MY PRIDE
CONTINUE TO GET ON MY KNEES, AND KNOW THAT GOD IS AT MY SIDE
