It's been exactly three years

But feels like not so long ago

When you brought pain in my heart

And tears on my pillow


I still wonder once in a while

Was the love I gave you

Enough to last the years?

Did I do everything right?

Did I smother all your fears?


Darling after all this time

If I have ever been untrue

You should know at least,

It was never to you


And I needed to hear you say

At least just one more time

"Don't let our story end in sorrow

Thought it's alright to cry

But promise me to let go"


Since it was you, I would have listened

And maybe I would have tried


I guess I don't have many regrets,

I've done everything I could

And I have made you mine

And I will keep loving you

For a very long time


Droughts and storms raged on

Against all odds we stood strong

Perhaps perfection isn't made to last

Fate thought we didn't belong


I just hope to find something

That makes me ease the pain

And I hope that you have loved me

Without any restrain


Maybe I should rest my head

Knowing you had been mine

Despite death taking away

The love of a lifetime


The torrent chose its stream

Deviation's odds are small

It's enough to make you wonder

Can anything last at all


I'm terrified of letting go,

But even more of being confined;

Torn between moving on

And the lover you leave behind


How can I still dare to hope

For only one more day?

It's been so long

So, so long,

Since you went away
