I can say that we are through

And I will almost mean it

But simple words just can't undo

All the ties between us

Part of me will hang on

Long after you're gone

Though it's the right thing

For you, I know

I can watch you leave

But I can't let you go



Chorus:



I will be your friend

And I will dry your tears

Though I won't be the one you give

Your love to through the years

And I will do my best
