I've Moved!

Hello wayward traveler - I thank you for visiting my blog.

I have recently moved to Wordpress, so I'll be slowly phasing my 'Blogger' blog out. If you've enjoyed my work and would like to keep seeing it, please go to simonaustinpoetry.wordpress.com and you can continue following me and my poetry.

I look forward to seeing you there :)

Letting You Go

Now I’ve found my strength to move on,
And I wish you all the best,
But I’ve got to be strong.
And I can do this on my own,
I don't need anybody’s arms
To carry me along.

Don’t be sad baby,
We were together, but together
We'll not make it through the storm.
We had each other,
There was no other, but my lover,
There's still something going wrong.

I’m leaving, I’m going but don’t stand there crying for me,
I’ll find my own way
And you’ll find your own way too.
I’m sorry, but one day you’ll look back and thank me for this,
I’ll always love you,
But loving you means letting you go.

I thank you for loving me so long
Oh but my darling, darling baby,
It’s time to move on.
But remember, remember
Time is a healer, for us both,
And we’ll always have this song.

Don't look back baby,
Looking back now, will compact how,
What we’ve suffered was all wrong.
Look beyond us,
Far above us, and you'll soon see
What we had is never gone.

I’m leaving, I’m going but don’t stand there crying for me,
I’ll find my own way
And you’ll find your own way too.
I’m sorry, but one day you’ll look back and thank me for this,
I’ll always love you,
But loving you means letting you go.

We had it all and it could have been right,
But I couldn’t take all of those lonely nights...
Those lonely nights.

So I’m leaving, I’m going but don’t stand there crying for me,
I’ll find my own way
And you’ll find your own way too.
I’m sorry, but one day you’ll look back and thank me for this,
I’ll always love you,
But loving you means letting you go.
