My Lady\'s Goodbye

My lady my love
   you found out what I\'m made of
       then I watched you leave me here
 I saw you fade into the sun
                     I thought I was the only one
     but you\'re happy with him
                             from what I hear

and all our mutual friands
                          in time they all chose sides
               they watched as you laughed and as I cried
      it seems so clear now
                     you were the strong one
                                              in the end
                        you gave someone your heart
                            I died inside

   Lady my sweet
     I\'ve lost my will to live
                     I wish I had the strength but I don\'t
        I\'d like to believe someday I\'ll rise above
                                                  but I know in my heart
                           I won\'t
  and all our mutual friends
                                 in time they chose a side
                  they laughed along with you
                                     and watched me cry
                            it\'s all so clear now
           you were the strong one all along
                               I curled up and died
                                    you survived
