"I would rather die living, than live dying"

The letter

I got the letter
stepping off a plane
then I knew
things would never be
the same

As I read your words
about the pain
in all the love
the words we said

Now i'm farther from you
Farther than i've ever been
Though we're miles apart
Across the ocean between us
You are with me in my heart

Though i feel fallen apart
I'm holding on to you
Like you said in your letter
Those were the days
never better

I've waited for years
To hear you say
for the words to clear the way
It gave me light in my darkness
If i could see you now
Everything would be alright

Through the tears in my eyes
I imagine you again
Looking in my eyes like no other
With every breath
I want to be back there

Think of me when i fly
Inside the butterflies by your side
When the wind blows the trees
Think of me when your heart is light
When you feel free

I'm going to love you
Til the day i die
Believe me when i say
I will always find a way
To be with you
Until every tree by the ocean
Fades away
