Missing You Already

Holding back the tears
Swallowing the tightness in the throat
I wish I could ask you to stay
But it’s time to go

The kilometres walked
Songs that were sung
Shopping, trying out new clothes
It seems we’d only just begun!

The beach…
The bakery…
Even the zoo…

By bus…
By train…
By taxi and with our own two feet…

There isn’t a place in this city I wouldn’t have followed you to!
With you… all places and all moments are memorable.

So forgive the sadness when we say goodbye
Forgive the selfishness of wanting to keep you nearby
May time fly by quickly while we are apart
Until then… my thoughts go with you, and I keep you in my heart.
