I winced in agony
As I walked away,
For I knew your eyes
And heart will refuse;
That they are broken,
In my expectation...
But, I have no way
Than to walk away
To spare you the misery
Of unfulfilled piety
The heartache of loss
The distress of loneliness...
Cry, for now, you may
Soon you'll forget my way;
In that hope I walk away
To save you from agony...
To help you let go now,
And lead life anew.
Life is but a short journey
Which has to end hastily,
In my heart I hold you
Closer than any I know.
Shed not a tear for me,
As my path is before me!
