I smiled for you As you passed by I couldn't let you see me cry You looked so proud then you turned away What's best for is killing me I didn't know it'd be this hard I know you had to go But why'd you go so far I always knew this day would come Was there something I could have done To change your mind to keep you here with me And though I wish you could have stayed You had to follow your heart I know you had to go But why'd you go so far BRIDGE- And today, it's a beautiful day Perfect accept for the tears on my face You're in your best standing there Promises are in the air And here she comes to take your ring and your name Just two words you'll become one And you will leave me torn apart I know you had to go But why'd you go so far
