Goodnight for the Last Time

You kept me sane I can't thank you It's too late for that Forget the end Remember the time well spent Life goes by too fast Don't regret what didn't last Please don't get too close to me I'll never love again When all I see Is distant memory Of you and me My friend Our story has to end I need time for my heart to mend I said goodnight for the last time Let you drift with the sunlight As you slipped through my grasp I heard them say The pain would go away You'd be somewhere better How could you be better If you aren't here with me I will let you keep Our memory in a locket A picture of you and me It'll keep you safe Like you did for me I could never replace you I'd never try to Please don't get to close to me There's a complexity In my smile I'll stand composed and proud And try not to break down My friend Our story has to end I need time for my heart to mend I said goodnight for the last time Let you drift with the sunlight As you slipped through my grasp I heard them say The pain would go away You'd be somewhere better How could you be better If you aren't here with me I feel better How could I feel better If you aren't here with me
