Said I'd let you go
With a smile
Yet my trembling lips betrayed me
Whispered words to your fading back
Still echoing
in my chest
Eyes that only feigned their strength
Could never hold you in the end
Your name drifts like a fragile breeze
Scattered through the silent night
When a man parts with love His tears remain unseen
Yet the breaking of his heart
Shakes the earth beneath
his feet
When a man relieves his love Though the heavens fall apart
And fading eternal
Try to erase
your presence
Yet your
eyes color the day
Even my laughter still carries you
Binding me to silent still
Till I land silent Linger on the path you left
Hoping you might turn once more Words of love I could not speak
Rise
upward Lost to the skies
When a man parts with love His sorrow hides unseen
But his soul remains for eternity When he lets her go at last
Though the world may cease its breath The mourns of her memory
Are closing
to fade When a man parts with love
