Gone with the wind, you left me standing still

Disappeared into the atmosphere
Like fog
Like smoke
I lived for you
I died for you
Stood up to fight for you
And to my right
That's where you exited
Flashing lights
Plastic signs
The world was dark
When you drove off into the pitch night
"I'm sorry
I just don't love you
I tried
I really did
But it wasnt right
And you're worth too much
To keep going on
With me pretending
That I could ever love you enough
Love you as much
As you love me
I'm sorry
I hope you can forgive me
One day
I hope you'll see
That I did this for you
Hurting you hurts me
And it's not something I'd ever want to do to you
But I just dont love you in the right way
I'll miss you
I swear I will
Dont cry
I'm still always here
But for now
It'll hurt you to see me
So I'll go
This isnt goodbye
I promise
I swear I'll see you again"
I remember those were the last words you said to me
I remember them so clearly
You felt them emphatically
You believed them
When you said them to me
But you lied to me
You never saw me again
Cos the day after
I learnt that there was a crash
And you had had a blow to the head
There was no pain
No last thoughts in your head
Everything happened quickly
There was no pain
Except in me
Cos the love of my life was dead
And he'd promised me
That he'd see me again
I never knew
That saying nothing
Would come back to bite me
Cos I never got to say
How much I love you
How much I'd miss you
How much I wanted you to stay
I lost you
My world
In the form of a lover
In the form of a best friend
I'll miss you
Until the end
When I'll get to see you again
