From My Hands

So much I've thought
I'd have to say
Though I try to speak
My meaning strays
We can't avoid
The facts that brought us here
I've come to say goodbye

The lies I try
To tell with my own eyes
An act of pride
A willful compromise
Please understand
How torn I am
When I walk away from here

I lament
The moments we won't share
If I am far to sentimental, I apologize
Please understand
This is who I am
And who'll I'll still be
When I've walked away from here

You know I'm not unkind
When I say
In the future
The past is just the past
No going back
No change of heart
But this is now
Time will not defer

My thoughts betray
So easily confess
How long I'll wait here
After you have gone
Nothing ends
But I won't believe that now
Please don't walk away from here

And when alone
When I remember days
Nothing will change
A single fact of who you were to me
Oh come what may
Forever to the end
I find it so hard to let you go

Hush now
Let it go now
There's no need
For sad goodbyes

Hush now
Let it go now
I know it's time to go
Time to let this fall
From my hands
