An Early Goodbye

There is pain in an early good-bye,
There are so many dreams you must set aside,
So many memories to cause you pain,
So many plans to change.
There is pain in an early good-bye.
There are so many times when you question why,
So many feelings you must deny,
So many tears.
There are so many things I wanted to say,
So many reasons I hoped you could stay.
I LOVED YOU COMPLETELY; I have some regrets,
But I just wasn't ready yet.
So I'll try with all my heart to make some sense of it.
And there's only one power to lean upon,
And there's only one reason to go on.
I believe in the wisdom of God.
He ruleth the seasons, he faileth us not.
This kind of sorrow he has also known,
Do not walk alone.
Here is nothing and no one to blame,
And there's no use in thinking what might have been.
I would have kept you through life's short span,
But God had a different plan.
So I'll pray for the day when sorrow will cease,
For the day when I know perfect peace.
I'll find the courage to make it somehow,
But I'm feeling so lonely now.
So I'll cry a little bit, and try a little bit,
And I'll trust in God to make some sense of it.
Then my eye will be single to one star,
To live my life worthy of where you are.
But today its not easy, today I may cry,
So if you see the tears in my eyes,
It's the pain of an early good-bye.
