I tried to fly

I couldn't remember why

And as I remembered

I was shot out of the sky

And as I hit the earth

I had realized

That I'd been found out

And would pay for my lies

And I thought to myself

Why did I lie

I asked myself

Why did I try?

And that's when I finally

Remembered why.

It started with a hug

And a quiet "Hi"

And grew into something

That money can't buy.

That's how I met her

The Love of my Life

The girl who I'd Live for

And for whom I would die.

In the same ed we'd lie

And in that same bed we'd rise

I'd be greeted each morning

By those ocean eyes.

That's why I had tried

Why I tried to fly

Was to get home to my Life

My Love

My Light

My wife.

And when I came to my senses

I looked around

My pool of blood

Was all that I found.

I was running out of time

This is how I'd pay for my crime

I pat myself down

Found a paper and pen

I wrote You a letter

Knowing I'd never write again

Never see

Never kiss

Never hug or hold You

I thought I'd never find Love

You proved that wasnt true

As my vision got blurry

I knew it was time

I finished Your letter

And let out a sigh

I used my last breath

blew a kiss to the sky

As I watched it carry my letter

I hoped You wouldn't cry

That You'd know I tried

To get home to my Love

My Life

My Light

And my wife.

With that I laid my head down

And I pictured You

The Love of my Life

As I smiled and closed my eyes

For the vey last time.
