We know this won't last
But you're the best I've ever had
I don't know how to let this go
I want you more than you could ever know

I know that you have to leave
And I want you to
for you
But I don't want you to
For me

I want it all with you
Marriage,
A family.

That's just not in the cards for us.
It's not what you want.
And it breaks my heart.
I understand.
But i don't accept it.

I look at you and see your soul
See your kindness
Your pain

I want to nurture you.
I want to love you forever.
I've never felt this way before.
It's so bittersweet.

I worry im a bandaid for you.
To comfort you until you go.
I know you love me but my mind goes there.

I want to spend every waking moment with you.
Because I never know when it will be the last.
