Sweetest Goodbye
You said you’ll never leave me
When we were seventeen
That someday you’ll let me see
The forever that you mean.
You held my hand that winter night
To give me the warmth I need
And said you’ll stay until midnight
Just like a plant from a seed.
We’ve watched the stars crash down
And had a glance of meteors
You promised to give me a crown
Without the return of the favor.
The two of us counted the drops of rain
And when the sun shines we trace the rays
It’s like we never felt such a kind of pain
That will and can separate our ways.
You said we’ll stay like this forever
No worries, no doubts ‘bout this feeling
Even if fire turned cold and changes the weather
You’ll stay right here and won’t keep me hanging.
But the hourglass’s sands poured freely
Like it’s the start of the end of the story
After you’ve kissed my head sweetly
Your hand fell down after saying sorry.
