I can give up my chance to be with you for your sake of eternal happiness.

Oh the things I wish I could give you
I see you standing there wishing for a new life
Oh how I wish my promises could come true
I want to see the fire start back into your soul
But all I see are embers slowly fading away into wisps
I want to see the joy that is no longer there
I want to see your smile and you laugh
I want to see your passion
I want to see your way of hospitality


But I given you my all
I have nothing else to give
I wish I could give you more time
I wish I could give you more experiences
I wish you could see how I view your great elegance
I wish I could give you more than my all
But I guess we can't always get what we want
I just want to see you look past the pain of your fate


Look at the future
Look at your surroundings
Am I there?
I hope I am,
But I know that is most unlikely
I can't give you what you want so I grant happiness to you even if I'm not standing by your side
I can't give the freedom you so desperately crave
So please make your decision to your benefit
For if I knew there was a regret in your future for my wants...
I would simply die
So please,
I beg you,
choose wisely, no tears shall be cried
