Listen Dear

Listen dear there's so much to say
A thousand words couldn't help me explain
I now you're scared it won't be the same
But I promise you I'll always remain
The best of me is seen by your side
The best of you I just can't decide
You seek the world such a traveler at heart
Ten thousand miles couldn't tear us apart

So please don't go my heart grows cold
At the thought you're out of sight but never off my mind
Now I know that the hardest part was just watching you go

Listen dear please let me explain
There's so much wrong but there's no one to blame
I find it hard that we left it so well
It's just a break not an end in itself
I'm so naive that I thought I'd be fine
You're coming home in 8 months time
And as they said it will make us so strong
But just a day is a day too long

So please don't go my heart grows cold
At the thought you're out of sight but never off my mind
Now I know that the hardest part was just watching you go
