From My Hands

So much I've thought

I'd have to say

Though I try to speak

My meaning strays

We can't avoid

The facts that brought us here

I've come to say goodbye

The lies I try

To tell with my own eyes

An act of pride

A wilful compromise

Please understand

How torn I am

When I walk away from here

I lament

The moments we won't share

If I am far too sentimental, I apologize

Please understand

This is who I am

And who'll I'll still be

When I've walked away from here

You know I'm not unkind

When I say

In the future

The past is just the past

No going back

No change of heart

But this is now

Time will not defer

My thoughts betray

So easily confess

How long I'll wait here

After you have gone

Nothing ends

But I won't believe that now

Please don't walk away from here

And when alone

When I remember days

Nothing will change

A single fact of who you were to me

Oh come what may

Forever to the end

I find it so hard to let you go

Hush now

Let it go now

There's no need

For sad goodbyes

Hush now

Let it go now

I know it's time to go

Time to let this fall

From my hands
