We laughed and cried as we might
Showing just how much we care
We held each other oh so tight
Until we’d cried the last tear

You often asked the reason
Why it’s time for me to leave
To set you free for your return
To your friends of course my dear.

I couldn’t bear to see the pain
I couldn’t tear your heart again
When the time for you to say
That it was time to go away.

I gave the bird the choice to fly
To spread your wings and soar on high
Without remorse or regret
Because I chose to let you fly.

I watched as you did fly away
Watching as you soared up high
Wondering would you fly to me?
Or fly away to new beginnings


Though my dear you’ll find new love
And thoughts of me shall slowly fade
Forever I will watch the sky above
For my love for you will never fade.
