Will you wait for me?

Please don’t find someone new

Standing by the gate, I hold your hand tight

Trying not to cry, keeping it light

You smile and say, “There’s no one but you”

I wish I could stay, but I have to move

My heart is heavy, but I’ll keep it inside

I want your last memory to be of me smiling wide

One last smile, one last goodbye

Promise me you’ll remember tonight

One last smile, though it breaks my heart

Holding on to you as we’re falling apart

Watching as the minutes tick by so fast

Wondering if this moment could somehow last

But I see the plane, and I know it’s time

I whisper softly, “Will you still be mine?”

One last smile, one last goodbye

Promise me you’ll remember tonight

One last smile, though it breaks my heart

Holding on to you as we’re falling apart

My heart is heavy, but I’ll keep it inside

I want your last memory to be of me smiling wide

One last smile, one last goodbye

Promise me you’ll remember tonight

One last smile, though it breaks my heart

Holding on to you as we’re falling apart

I’ll hold on to your words, every single one

You said there’s no one else, not now, not ever

I want to believe, though we’re far apart

I’ll carry you always, deep in my heart

One last smile, one last wave

I walk away, but I’m trying to be brave

One last smile, one last goodbye

Promise me you’ll remember tonight

One last smile, though it breaks my heart

Holding on to you as we’re falling apart

Will you wait for me?

Please don’t find someone new
