#VERSE
You tell me that you told me I wish I could recall
It’s not like I missed a word or two, somehow I missed them all
I am just a child of these times we’re living through
And I have learned to doubt some things I once believed were true
I sometimes think I’ve worked out how we got from there to here
I think that I remember but my memory’s not clear
As time goes on I never doubt how much we always cared
How could we forget all those years and everything we shared
#CHORUS
I will always love you
You know that is true
No matter where you go
Or what you choose to do
I will search for answers
I’ll try to comprehend
How could I have been so thoughtless
As to lose my greatest friend
#VERSE
On the day that you left, I didn’t understand
That the home we had created had all been built on sand
I felt shock, complete surprise because we hadn’t been in strife
And I’d always thought we’d last as long as my entire life
There’s a kind of emtiness that swallows hope and pride
Like a black hole in my spirit that can’t be satisfied
I lived there for a while when first I was alone
I only slowly reemerged to find my way back home
#CHORUS
I will always love you
You know that is true
No matter where you go
Or what you choose to do
I will search for answers
I’ll try to comprehend
How could I have been so thoughtless
As to lose my greatest friend
#VERSE
Since that final day I’ve been learning how to feel
It’s new and strange and I wonder how much of it is real
As I emerge from the gloom I know one thing is true
I’ll always be grateful for the gift of knowing you
This is a story of a man who’s partner suddenly leaves him. It feels, to him, that it came out of nowhere – nothing appeared to be wrong. It’s a shock and mystifying, at least at first. I’ve known a few of these men. Mostly they come to understand what happened after a while.
