Don't Leave

Though it's only been a short while
Iv never had a friend like you
But soon you will be leaving me
And i don't know what to do.
Your love and understanding
Have brought me a new hope
I wish i could keep you here
Tied to me with a rope.
Why do you choose to leave me
I ask with confusion and pain
Don't let me go back to feeling alone
That will drive me insane.
The miles will soon stretch between us
What will happen to this bond?
Will we reunite to find
That this special thing is gone?
So many questions i have
My heart filled with fear
Dreading you will leave me
And never shed a tear.
Unlike this desperate aching
In my heart that wont let go
Which leads me now to tell you
Something you must know.
The friendship you have given me
The joy you bring my soul
Has filled me with such strength
And love once unfortold
We may soon be seperated
But i'll remember just the same
Forever in my heart
Is where you will always remain.
I wish that when you leave
We'd remain the best of friends
You will be in my thoughts
Until i see you again.
How can i say goodbye?
No words, just tears fall
From my eyes and sobbing heart
That knows you after all.
The hours spent together
Will soon be down to few
Forcing me to let go
And start this year a new.
Without you here to talk
Searching for a friendly face
That knows you after all
You can never be replaced.
