I was longing just to see your face,

(Verse 1) For an hour now, you've been asleep, Breathing softly, without a peep. You don't grasp what's in my heart, As I sit here, worlds apart. Watching over you, so serene, Wondering how to intervene. To tell you why I cannot stay, It's breaking me, in every way. Our time together, oh so sweet, Moments cherished, oh so fleet. But sometimes paths diverge, you see, Even when it's you and me. (Chorus) I was longing just to see your face, Now I'm leaving, without a trace. I was eager just to be near you, But now I must bid adieu. (Verse 2) A letter's penned to tell my tale, Why I leave, why I set sail. Yet questions linger, in my mind, Answers I cannot find. It feels like screaming, but no sound, Bound by fate, I'm earthbound. Sometimes actions lack a reason, Yet they change our course, our season. I was eager just to be near you, But now I must bid adieu. I was longing just to see your face, Now I'm leaving, without a trace. (Bridge) Time rushes by, like a stream, Moments fade, like a dream. Darkness fades, light breaks through, As I bid farewell to you. One last glance, one final touch, Memories cherished, oh so much. Tomorrow when you wake, I'll be gone, And the letter, well, it will be none. (Chorus) I was longing just to see your face, Now I'm leaving, without a trace. I was eager just to be near you, But now I must bid adieu. [guitar solo] (Chorus) I was longing just to see your face, Now I'm leaving, without a trace. I was eager just to be near you, But now I must bid adieu. [Outro]
