The Way I Feel, After Goodbye

I miss you so much, it doesn't seem fair
Why do you have to live so far, I wish I didn't care
I hate the way I feel, after we say goodbye
Placing the phone back on the hook, trying hard not to cry
You are my best friend, but you are so far away
No one can possibally understand how I feel without seeing you day to day
I can't lie to you, even though I try
I can't hide from you, you would find me, wherever I go
I feel so alone in those few moments of goodbye
Sometimes I wish that the time would never come
I could talk to you forever, and remember every word
You tell me your problems, and even though sometimes I may not want to hear
Because I love you, I will always listen no matter how I feel
I know I can be a burden
And I know you get tired
You always listen, and then with care you push me higher, to next level
Eventually I know that our goodbyes will be final
No more visits
No more calls
There will be someone special in your life
Someone so much more important than I
At that time, I will look back in our past
You may forget me, but I won't be able to forget you
I cherish the time we have together
I cherish our friendship
But I know the day is coming, when you can't be there
So for now, the goodbyes are only short ones
For I know that I will talk to you again
We will laugh, we might even cry, we'll talk
But tomorrow...I will miss you, for I have just said goodbye
