One Step Away

As the minutes pass I look to you
I know you're not all right
I'm past the point of thinking straight
I can only watch and cry
Don't say the words that mean the end
Don't tell me to go on
Don't leave behind an only song
To wish that you weren't gone

As a boy I held your hand
I never wanted you to leave
I could not ever understand
And now I'm here in disbelief
Do you have to say goodbye?

I lived my life knowing now
Imagining you here
Knowing what would take your life
And counting all my tears
Did you see this then?
Did you think of how
You would tell someone
I have to leave now?

As a boy I held your hand
I never wanted you to leave
I could not ever understand
And now I'm here in disbelief
Do you have to say goodbye?

One step away
One step away
One step away
One step away

As a boy I held your hand
I never wanted you to leave
I could not ever understand
And now I'm here in disbelief
Do you have to say goodbye?
