Before you move forward to your next journey,
Stop you I must to tell you a story,
For it was with you in this small, dull city
That I found life's most beautiful serendipity.
Remember the time when we first met
The moments we had, oh how can I forget
Our time together, as ephemeral it maybe
Will always remain, my most cherished memory
Never did I imagine how a single person could be
The single most profound influence on me
And as I realize this maybe my last in your presence
I shall close my eyes and cherish this blissful evanescence.
It might seem like our last goodbye,
But to me,
You'd always be like the moon in the sky
Distant she is; at an unreachable place
But always at the window smiling right down at our face
My eyes they swell
From all the tears that fell
My knees go weak
I just cannot speak
My heart turns to rust
O' it feels like hell
But smile at you I must,
And I must fare thee well
Smile at you I must,
And I must fare thee well.
