We were standing there,
On the edge of the aisle,
I was afraid to see your look in denial.
Your lips were smiling,
Your eyes were glancing,
Boy, we were so close to dancing,
Everyone knew I wasn't lying,
'Cause I heard Carla's crying,
When I said "I do".
I saw your smile of relief,
But only brief,
'Cause everytime we're close to happiness,
It turns out to be sadness.
Yeah, what a mess.
I only wanted you the best,
My changing answer wasn't just a test.
Your smile disappeared,
Carla must've cheered.
Tried to make you see,
What you could be,
Rather take a chance,
Than being in at trance,
Of regret.
I want you to become a big success,
Not a mess.
Listen to me,
I know this.
You may never return again,
And that will leave me in pain.
But as long as you're happy,
A part of me is.
The long kiss goodbye,
It'll never die.
Your legs on the stairs slowly disappeared,
You were gone,
And it felt weird.
Gone,
But not really.
'Cause I know,
That you'll always be in my heart,
Mind,
And every single piece of me.
But what hurts the most,
Is to know,
That from now on,
I'll only see your ghost.
That's what hurts the most.
