We knew this was our fate
To have to walk away
As the speedometer ticks
Our hearts acheYou start up conversation
Try to distract me
It's very cute, trust me
But I know what's happeningAs one minute becomes thirty
I begin to feel weak
I can't resist any longer
As tears descend my cheekNormally I would obey security
But I need to say goodbye
So I step out of my car
To hold you as we cryI snap one last picture
As you smile the pain away
Planting kisses around your face
I cherish the last giggleYou tell me that you love me
My throat closes up
For I know these words will be it
I love you too, so muchAs I get back in the car
I try to hold it together
But once you walk away
I crack under pressureI pull into a lot
Because I can't drive home
"Home" I guess
Since you're not thereI sit there and change the music
As people watch me and wonder
I cry and I cry
I miss youThe pain in my heart
Carries through my mind
Leaving my body numb
I let go of timeAn hour passes
You board your flight
As I sit in my car
Hoping it's a lieI finally drive home
The road blurs instantly
I look to my passenger seat
Where you're supposed to beAs I pull into my driveway
I feel hollow inside
I practice my fake smile
My family thinks I'm fineI manage conversation
Slink up to my room
Rookie mistake
It just reminds me of youI lay in the bed
Motionless
I lost my other half
Please, come backAs much as I cry
As hard as it is
I know you're still mine
This isn't the endI just have to wait
For what seems like forever
Until I see that golden smile
You are worth every secondWhether it's pain or joy
Together or apart
I know you're here
I feel it in my heartThe fact that I have you
That I know it's our forever
Makes me happy
Happier than everSo, as you said
It's not goodbye
It's see you later
Until that timeI'll be here
Waiting and waiting
Through our window
I'll be staring
