By Joseph McGowan

At night as I lay my head down to sleep,
 I unlock the memories of us that in my soul I keep
And slowly to the sandman, I fall his prey
I have the same dream night after night
and your memory haunts me day after day

I find myself driving in my car looking for you in the faces
 of the crowds I pass on the street
Thinking to myself if I couldn’t even have you for a day
 then why did I ever find you and why did we ever meet

Yet the hardest thing I have to do, is saying goodbye to you

And as the same song plays over and over oh what a wicked game

I see you and I reach for you but as you turn away
 you whisper it can never be the same
And as the sands of time fall, they help to cover the pain
of a love lost and it’s as if I gave you my love in vain

For you know I gave you all of me
And I never imagined you could weaken so easily
Through time,
 I will carry your memory with me till the end
for how can I forget
For I now live each day
 with the taste in my mouth of heartbreak and regret

Yet the hardest thing I have to do, is letting go of you

Each day I think of what we had and what it could have been

And what if we had met at another time, another place, and what then
Yet memories are like dreams, and dreams are so far away
And once I had your heart and you hade mine but that was yesterday

And as I lay my head down to sleep tonight
I came to realize that in the end you were right
And though I loved you so, I was wrong
And in the end I was weak and it was you who where strong

For the hardest thing you had to do, was to let go of the love between me and you
