Gone With the Wind
I rushed over when I got the news
phone slipped out of my hands, was running out the door
chemo didn't go so well
body couldn't fight anymore
I looked in your eyes
and saw an immortal forever
it wasn't fear in your eyes, but your pain filled the room
But I know you know one day we'll be again together
Emptiness is deafening
making me go crazy
without you, I find no rest
I need you in my life to bring out the best
I can't take a second of this
seeing you like this
I want you to stay but I can't bear it if you didn't part
because the look in your eyes breaks my heart
just know that I love you, I have always since
hold open the gate when you're gone with the wind
You look at me and you try to smile
not enough strength, if only for awhile
I wish I could take your place
because I can't bear to see your face
I tell you to rest, you're getting sleepy now
you're doing your best, fighting the now
after a second or two, my world shattered and collapsed
the line beeped one last time, and went flat
doctors rushed to save you
but you were unsaveable
mptiness is deafening
making me go crazy
without you, I find no rest
I need you in my life to bring out the best
I can't take a second of this
seeing you like this
I want you to stay but I can't bear it if you didn't part
because the look in your eyes breaks my heart
just know that I love you, I have always since
hold open the gate when you're gone with the wind
Everyone's gone
it's just you and me
I look at you
cry and fall to my knees
I took your hand in mine
kissed gently your forehead
I love you, I'll miss you
don't forget
that's what I said
when you're gone with the wind
you're gone with the wind
