How can I say goodbye?
How can I be strong?
I'm not ready I can't trust.
I'm just full of pain
I'm not ready to love again.
I need time to get through this.
Someday my heart will just let him go
someday those memories will fade away,
but right now I'm not ready just yet.
But when that day comes
when I'm ready to let him go
you'll be the first person to know.
I will turn to you and say;
"my heart is finally free
and I want to be yours."
But you need to promise me
You will be patient
because it will take time.
Time to know if I am ready
to leave that past behind.
Because I don't want to hurt again
or feel my heart in pain.
But I'm not ready just yet
I still haven't gotten through this.
The memories haven't gone away,
I'm not ready to love again.
I haven't let him go
but when I do you'll be the first to know.
