Your words stare back at me
A hand that writes no more.
It was only passing through,
I only wish I knew.

I thought there was more time
To do all the things we planned.
Success and happiness all around.
******* for being drowned.

I would have said goodbye
I've loved you all this time.
You were only passing through,
I only wish I knew.

Death won't negotiate.
I'm obviously too late.
I only wish I'd said,
I can't get you out of my head.

I know that there's no heaven
Above or hell below to fear.
The best I can hope for,
Are days when you feel near.

I should have hugged you goodbye
Said I've loved you all this time.
You were only passing through,
I only wish you knew.
