She is dressed in black with eyes so sad
The funeral procession is marching
She has so many regrets but she cannot go back
The finality is startling
The coffin is laden with poetry and roses
Symbolising romantic connection
She will remember this after he decomposes
This morbidly touching expression
They didn't want to say goodbye
Death didn't give them a choice
She remembers on the day he died
His soft and gentle voice
Do not fret and do not cry
I've loved you and thats enough
It is time to say goodbye
Life was good for I had your love
She is dressed in blue in high heeled shoes
On her first date in three years
His eyes, a brown hue gives her a sense of de ja vu
The reason for this is not quite clear
She feels a trace of shame everytime she says his name
While her wedding ring still sits on her dresser
Yet she can hear her husband's words within a memory preserved
That he'll support her on her every endeavour
She didn't want to move on
He didn't give her a choice
She remembers on the day he died
His soft and gentle voice
Remember to continue smiling
Remember to love again
Long after I leave this life
We will still be friends
She is dressed in white on a warm day in July
The brown eyed man is telling her his vows
It is at this time that she comes to realise
Why his eyes are so familar somehow
They are the exact same shade that got her carried away
By a different man so many years ago
As the groom kisses the bride any remaining grief subsides
Pure joy replacing the dark sorrow
They didn't want to say goodbye
Death didn't give her a choice
She remembers on the day he died
His soft and gentle voice
One day all your grief will end
One day your broken heart will mend
It is time to say goodbye
Until we meet again
