He's finally going away.
Why does it ache so darn badly?

Waters ... cold and impassionate
they come raging over me
I'm drowning in a sea of silent tears
Watching you say your goodbyes
I wish I could pull you back and
give you one last tender kiss
But that moment have come and gone

I know it
when I get that special smile from you
That deep down you still do care
Yet I know now's not the time
Or will it ever come again?

It hits so bad baby
When I can do nothing.. nothing about it.
When all I have left is a wasted me
Drowning in the sorrow of losing you
For I know things will change
And perhaps I'll lose that part of you
... forever.
