It is only one word to say,
a finality for one day.
One word to make me cry,
one I wished was a lie.

To let you pass my gate
was one of my mistakes,
to have let you in my home
when I could've let you roam.

Then I had you by the fire
where I started to admire.
Should've looked away,
if then you'd be astray.

Cookies were our favorite
we had to savor it,
so with this sweet snack
bitterness I won't lack.

Gripping onto sands,
slipping from my hands.
Nothing with be a forever,
so enjoy our time together.

When that one day arrives
we'll part our lives,
and you wave your hand,
drop it, I demand.

Bye is too friendly,
it bitters our endly.
Formal be goodbye,
that won't make me cry.

It is only one word to say,
a finality for one day.
One word to make me cry,
one I wished was a lie.
