"I'll Tell You Now"

Before we say goodbye...

I want you to know
How much you mean to me

I'll tell you now

Before I say goodbye...

I hope I have shown in ways that You could see...
I wish there could have been
You and me

You've dominated my thoughts
For a long time now

I've been wanting to pour my Heart out to you

But I wasn't sure when
Or even how

I'll always love to hear
The way you laugh

I just want to let you know,
Before I close my eyes...

That you've been...
The brightest star in my life

I love the fact that
Just talking about you...
Can completely
Change my mood

Though I'm not really sure...
If that's bad or good

The truth is...
That I'm afraid to let you know

I fear the feelings I have...
You will never show

But the thing that scares me most of all is...
That you won't be there to catch me...
If I fall.

So as we say this goodbye

My only wish is
To be able to see you
Before I die

I pray...
Your future is brightly lit

Even if I'm never a part of it

And no matter how far you go
I will always love you
And I'll miss you
In the ways
That I've been able to show

I'll remember everyday...
Even the very first
A hundred different ways

I'll miss all of the days
You spent with me...
The moments we shared

Even though
You've been set free

You will forever be...
In my memory

So now...

As I say my final goodbye

I can only hope to see you...
Before I die

I'll tell you now

I have always...
Always...
Loved only you
