Saying Goodbye

Saying goodbye is the hardest part
leaving the ones who know you best.
Saying goodbye is rough from the start
when you've known them forever, been put through the test.

Goodbye is no easy thing.
It's something you've never imagined.
Goodbye seems like some little fling.
Except they've helped pave your path in.

Your path is to the future, your path is to the heart.
You want to take them with you, but the future forces you apart.
Your path leads you outwards, to the new people, new places, new life.
You have to find new people, new things that are willing to carry your strife.

Saying goodbye will lead up to new "hellos".
Saying goodbye will lead us there.
Saying goodbye is a part of the process even though it seems unfair.
Saying goodbye, no one wants to do it.
Saying goodbye, why with us?
Saying goodbye, I love you and give you my trust.
Unfortunately, saying goodbye is just too much.
