When it comes to the end
can any of us say we tried hard enough
did I enrich your life as much as I was able
do the broken promises and the good intentions
count for more than the good times we had
And God we had some times, didn't we
It's hard for me to look you in the eyes
as hard as it is for me to watch you suffer
if this is love, you can keep it
if this is caring, please let me be
if this is compassion, then what the hell about me
How can I say good-bye
to the only soul who took me as I was
you never asked for more than I could offer
your belief in me never failed
never
I was there at the beginning
I will be there at the end
I very seldom cry
but you'll see me crying then
I love you
I will miss you
Dust
Somewhere she may find
another ball to run for
another lake to swim
somewhere she may find a place to rest her tired body
where the dog food overflows the bowl
the cats to chase are plenty
the mailman carries no can of mace
and no one minds if she barks all day and night
A friendship is framed with common memories
and we've certainly had our share of those
some good, some bad
some absolutely incredible
in the end it doesn't really matter
all that counts is the love we shared
the times we spent together
and the way we said good-bye
Farewell my friend
as I travel through existence
I hope we meet again
to share another moment
in our long and wonderful journey
