[Verse 1]

Hold me closely
Baby one last time
Let me breathe in
Every passing moment
Kiss these lips Before you walk away
Take my hand Before you leave me lonely

'cause i never wanted to hold you back or own you
I care enough to let this be goodbye

[Chorus]

And i will always love you
And i will always care
And i'll always remember all the good times we shared
I'll hang onto the memories
And let you go in style
And promise not to fall apart
Baby if it breaks my heart

[Verse 2]

You shared your life
You made me laugh
You dried my tears
And held onto the mourning
So if nothing last Looking back
Its been worth while Knowing you baby
But i have to say I was betting on forever
But baby if you have to then fly high

[Chorus]

And i will always love you
And i will always care
And i'll always remember all the good times we've shared
I'll hang onto the memories
And let you go in style
And promise not to fall apart
Baby if it breaks my heart

[Bridge]

[Coda]

And i will always love you
And i will always care
And i'll always remember all the good times we've shared
I'll hang onto the memories
And let you go in style
I'll promise not to fall apart
Baby if it breaks
If it breaks my heart

My heart
