She had to do it
For the best
Take the burden
As her own
She promised them
That she'd be back
Real soon
Look into her eyes
Trying not to cry
He's stifling
His urge to hug her
One last time
Could be the last
He sees of her
Hoping it's only
For a while
Hold his hand
She's secretly
Scared to go
But she can't show
No fear, be brave
For them all
And praying out
Her heart that
She'll be back
Real soon
