I didn’t want to leave you, but I didn’t have a choice.
I’m sorry that I hurt you. I know it seemed I didn’t care, or that I left
  in anger,
But when I died I mourned for you, the way you mourned for me.
And now I’m here, not far or near, but just around the corner on a path that goes one way.

I dream sometimes that I’ve gone back, and have another year with
   you,
Or maybe just another day, with time to say I love you and time to
  say goodbye.
But that’s a dream, I can’t go back,
And all that I can promise is my love will keep me waiting here
Until you turn the corner and I see you once again.
