May I Go? May I go now?
Do you think the time is right?
May I say good-bye to pain-filled days
and endless lonely nights?
I want to go. I really do.
It’s difficult to stay.
But I will try as best I can
to live just one more day.
To give you time to care for me
and share your love and fears.
I know you’re sad and so afraid,
because I see your tears.
So hold me now, just one more time
and let me hear you say,
because you care so much for me,
you’ll let me go today.
