Dressed In Black

Dressed in black

With a rose in my hand

I now understand

That I kept you

For as long as I could

It's time to let go

I stared

Into your watery eyes

As you wandered into the light

I watched

Though my eyelids were closed

As my memory captured the sight

I'm breathing

Though a part of me died

It doesn't seem right

I'm standing

As life lingers on

It's time to move on

I stared

Into your watery eyes

As you wandered into the light

I watched

Though my eyelids were closed

As my memory captured the sight

One day

With a rose in my hand

I'll see you again
