One Final Kiss

One Final Kiss
　
　
I love you, what more can I say
I’ll never be one to stand in your way
　
A million stars paint the night sky
I wish you didn’t have to say goodbye
　
We shared a love that burned like a flame
I still see no reason to lay blame
　
We walked hand in hand into the sunset
We made memories that I will never forget
　
We grew together and somehow grew apart
Once we shared a connection of the heart
　
These years how quickly they have passed
Always hoped our relationship was built to last
　
You say your freedom is what you truly desire
Your words are the water on the fire
　
I’ll surely miss you when you’re gone
I am just no good at living alone
　
So many things I’m going to miss so much
Including the magic of your touch
　
Please turn away I have already started to cry
Swore I I’d love you till the day I die
　
Your bags are packed with no regrets
It is clear you can’t forgive and forget
　
Faded rose petals lay on the floor
You’ve got your hand upon the door
　
If you must go spread your wings and fly
One final kiss and then we’ll say goodbye
