The days ahead

Got the words all in my mouth but I can't seem to let them out
Regardless of all I want to say
Have my photos here at hand with every memory in tact
Holding tight so that they can't escape
Just tell me that you're proud and you'll always be around
Despite of anything that comes between us
I need to hear you say that when I leave this state
That our love will overcome all of our demons

I need some reassurance
Motivation to pursue this
I'm walking out now
Please don't forget me

I'm not holding up, it's breaking me down
To know that I'm leaving and I won't be around
I'm missing your voice, your beautiful smile
But I feel better knowing that I'll be with you in the days ahead

I've been knocking on the sky and I've been listening for the sound
Another day, another chapter, another chance to get it right
Yeah, I've been hoping for a sign, something true and so alive
To resonate the answers that I'm needing

Here's to the best years that I've never known
I'll know you'll be there every step of the way
I've never been this scared before
But when I think about the love I've felt with you
Every doubt just fades away
