For The Best

What a love I have in you
What a treasure I have found
You are every single vision
And every single sound
I wish I never had to leave you
But I got to put you down
See you around, now, sweet thing
See you around

Don't cry about it
Don't choke your future with your past
No doubt about it
You've gotten rid of me at last
The books have all been written
And the dice have all been cast
Ain't life too fast, now, lover?
Ain't life too fast?

The song is over
The sorrow's only just begun
Weight on my shoulder
Just picked up another ton
Nothing lasts forever
If it did, would love be fun?
Put down the gun, Virginia
Put down the gun
