Time has come For me to let go Of the things that hurt me and you Of the things that made us suffer Like an old guitar Slowly losing its strings Running out of tune These feelings we once harbored Are now fading Like the last notes of a song It is a shame That we have to separate ways That we're now on our own You and I are now nothing But an old memory A black and white photograph Slowly fading into the background I'm so sorry for this goodbye We both know it's for the best Because if we keep up this love I'm afraid we'll both sink deeper Into the depths of pain And endless melancholy So now, our hands are drifting away My eyes brimming with tears Your lips turning into a frown Our hearts slowing its beat We bid farewell to our past We leave all the pain behind As we approach a new day A new tomorrow A new future Without the warmth Of each other's embrace The burning presence Of each other's company And the glowing love That we once shared Still, I thank you You made me love Like no other has done Let's not be too bitter About this separation Because good things Await us in the end Of this tragic story We'll be the very best of ourselves Even without each other Goodbye, my sweet love Happiness is on its way To make us smile again.
