Live and Let Live
I see the pain in your eyes
As we stand on the brink of forever
Your heart wants to fly
While I struggle to hold you close
I’ve known the softness of your touch
And the tenderness of your love
So as you slip through my fingers and off into the unknown
The paths we walk will differ
But memories never fade
Oh I miss you so much
Through the storms there you would be
Like a lighthouse on the hill
Always holding my hand never letting go
I wish we could go back
But life doesn’t seem to do that
So I hope your happy now
Just live and let live
As I watch you soar away
I remember the past
When you used to see both a lover and a friend
Reflected in my gaze
It seems like the spark you lit
Will consume me for a lifetime
The love I have for you still burns
Letting go tears at the scars
But time will be the healer and the memories remain
Oh I miss you so much
Through the storms there you would be
Like a lighthouse on the hill
Always holding my hand never letting go
I wish we could go back
But life doesn’t seem to do that
So I hope your happy now
Just live and let live
Oh those days were so sweet
Who can turn back the hands of time?
Not me and not you… but
Oh I miss you so much
Through the storms there you would be
Like a lighthouse on the hill
Always holding my hand never letting go
I wish we could go back
But life doesn’t seem to do that
So I hope your happy now
Just live and let live
