Please Stay

Not much sleep
Restless night
Fell asleep
At day breaks light
Slept for an hour
Maybe two
Woke up with a smile
Thinking of you
Only half awake
Then I realized
The possibilities
Of our heartbreaking goodbyes
I'm doing what I can
I pray with all my heart
That you won't have to go away
To embark on your fresh start
My eyes start to tear
But I refuse to cry
No reason to today
For there are no good byes
You are mine
For at least one more day
Even if I don't see you
I know you're not far away
If I need a hug 
I know that you're there
And the same rings true
If you are feeling despair
I'll always be here
That's what friends are for
But between you and I
We share so much more
We have had our problems
But we learned how to talk
Hold nothing back
Let it out all out
I trust you with my life
You're the best of everything
There will never be another
Comparable to the happiness you bring
I said I'd never love again
You knocked down my walls
Showed me it's ok to love
And for you I would fall
Never meant to fall in love
Never meant to get so close 
But how could I not
When it was you I needed most
Even though I had it all
The hubby the house the kids
Still felt like something was missing
found it when you kissed my lips
No matter where you are 
In this great big world
I just want you to know
You will forever be my girl
