HOW TO SAY GOOD BYE? or YOU GAVE ME WINGS

When a dream is as real
As the one I had,
Can you blame me
For not wanting to wake up?

When all I had was hope
And it gave me life,
Could you take away
The pleasure I had?

When all that is left
Is the memory of that day,
Can you ask me
To simply forget?

How to say good bye?
It hurts just to think,
For it is not
As simple as it seems.

We could live a life
That is as sweet
As the dream I had
But to say good bye...

How to say good bye
When all I want to do
Is to be next to you?
But that is what I must do.

Good bye to you
My day and night,
My love and sunshine,
To you...good bye.

A dream is as fragile
As the butterfly's wing
But it's also as strong
As the heart it's kept in.

In my heart you will live
As part of that dream
Which gave me strength
And gave me wings.
