Today, You Held My Hand

Today, you held my hand...
And when you let go you took my heart with you.
I couldnt tell you I had to let you go
I wasnt brave enough to say it.
But the way you pulled away from me told me you knew
I watched your shoulders sulk and slump
Like the reality was hitting you
It twisted me up inside to watch your sad eyes avoid mine
You could barely look at me
And this is the mess i've made
Pretty soon I'll be gone, just a memory
You'll have a chance to be happy
As long as its anyone but me
I cant be what you need right now
My world is upside down
I need you now more than ever
But if you know what is good for you...
You'll let go of my hand.
