What if I told you, with your footprints beside mine,
That with every step there was fear,
That a third set would start,
And yours would disappear.
And now I know, that erasing my set
Is the only thing I can do.
That even with all my love
I have to let you go, because it's what's best for you.
But to the end of my days my heart will be yours,
And I will always have a shoulder for you, my best friend.
To march through the pain,
Knowing you'll love him to the end.
Know that if l leave I have not abandoned you,
But simply that I know I'm not what you need,
And all I want is your pain to disappear
And for you to be freed.
So now it's my time to move on,
And time for me to be strong.
But no matter what happens or who I'm with,
I will always love you, no matter how long.
