They're all waiting for you and your suitcases
Their love has shrunk, no hugs or kisses,
but at least you have someone
Who misses your appearance.
I don't want her to leave, I want her to stay
My sweet little child is going away
No, I must act strong
No hugs or kisses
she must grow up on her own
Oh! How I miss how she was once small.
You're going away on your 19th birthday
You start to feel nervous
Your parents wave goodbye as they release a small sigh
"You'll make it through college in no time" they relay
But sometimes it's better to have nothing to replay
When all you remember is what you didn't do, nor didnt say, that day
If only she had said more than "goodbye"
I would have told the truth- that I wanted her to stay
Oh! I'd die if I don't see her again!
She is my child, at least in my eyes
Saying that she'll go grow up, is a bunch of lies
To think im coming back home tomorrow
Who knew I'd grow up so fast
No faces, nor texts, on the day I arrive,
Too late, I see, my family has died
Who knew they were driving in such a hurry
To see my face again, now not able
My eyes fill with tears, and my vision becomes blurry
How am I supposed to be mentally stable?
It's cold- No I'm cold, and I'll forever stay this way
Perhaps I sped too fast to see her again
The sweet little child that will never regain
The same love that I've given to ease her pain
This is not what I wanted, it's not what I meant
When I said "I'll die if I don't see her face again."
Now,I must grow up once again
But I know I'd be lying
If I said I knew how to keep going
But all I know is-
I want to cry
So I guess I'll stop growing and go back in time
To when I was a child, and my mom was alive
