There's death and fears that brought us closer,
too much pain to even say.
But try to act as if it was okay,
Was for another day.

The short time we went through together,
was one of the best years of my life.
You showed me a different kind of meaning,
a new meaning of no fear or fright.

And now that you are leaving,
I don't know what to do.
You always were there for me,
so now I must be there, too.

And as I read you this silent letter,
as you lie there ready to die.
I think back on the memories,
And soon begin to cry.

The fear of losing you,
seems too much for me to bear.
I never thought this day would come,
this day of pain and tears.

And as you hold my hand again,
I know it's our last time.
So I must let you go now,
Let you go and not be mine.
