From Me to You

I'm trying my best, I can't lie
I thought I was ready, for this Goodbye
But as you walked outside the door
Three words, six strings whisper
Please Don't Go.

Minutes would flutter seconds would fly
Time flew funny with you nearby
Momentous years,  in a moment nevermore
Stay a while longer
Please Don't Go.

She deserves better, she'll be better off
Is what my cage of silver linings is made of
Still Hope still springs eternal though
It might seem silly, I know
But Please Don't Go

But those aren't the words, I want to leave you with
If part we must, make the most of it
So here they are, from this bum to thee
Be free, Be the song YOU want to be

And Somewhere down the road should we meet
In the Perth Summer, or on a chilly Vancouver street
A Stella or a Gina around my arm, and you with somebody's son
Always know, It was you
You were the one.
