Standing at the edge of the beach Seagulls crying, waves singing Toes sinking into warm sand Your footsteps leading away from me, leaving imprints Standing at the edge of the forest Wind whistling through the branches Feet covered in damp cold leaves Your footsteps leaving, kicking leaves and breaking branches Standing at the edge of my path Sad songs coming through the door Feet covered in those old comfort slippers Your footsteps leading away from the path and my heart And me now.... Standing and watching you walk away Left with memories, songs and heartbreak

Leaving
Standing at the edge of the beach Seagulls crying, waves singing Toes sinking into warm sand Your footsteps leading away from me, leaving imprints Standing at the edge of the forest Wind whistling through the branches Feet covered in damp cold leaves Your footsteps leaving, kicking leaves and breaking branches Standing at the edge of my path Sad songs coming through the door Feet covered in those old comfort slippers Your footsteps leading away from the path and my heart And me now.... Standing and watching you walk away Left with memories, songs and heartbreak
