It's Better if I Just Go

It’s better if I Just Go
(Key of C)

You do not choose whom you love
Your heart tells you so
(But sometimes I can feel it)
It’s better if I just go.

My heart sings when you are near,
But I can not let it show
(Because you do not feel the same)
It’s better if I just go.

I want you to touch me
Like all those times before
(You can not look me in the eyes)
It’s better if I just go.

My every happy, wandering thought
Traces its way back to you
(The many fond memories I hold)
It’s better if I just go.

We’d wander through the wilderness
And you’d sing me a song or two
(My voice was always a little off-key)
It’s better if I just go.

You’d make up funny names
To call me by and by
(I always went and played along)
It’s better if I just go.

I told you my many secrets
And I never told you lies
(Can’t you see it written in my eyes?)
It’s better if I just go.

Winter has turned to spring again
Another year has passed us by
(Another year of me loving you)
It’s better if I just go.

So, why does my heart carry on
With sweet remembrances of you
(Your kiss and warm embraces)
It’s better if I just go.

Someday I’ll find that someone,
One who reminds me of you
(I often wonder if it will happen)
It’s better if I just go.

I pray to God every single day
To somehow live again
(Because I can not forget you)
It’s better if I just go.

The sorrows I feel are deep within
The hidden hollows of my soul
(My heart that still reminds me)
It’s better if I just go.

God's Gift

(Written in Angel’s Tongue)

Some days are like a cold, dark blast
Uncovering days long gone past
We’ve come a long way on our paths
Realizing the goodness we’ve found in each other.

(chorus)
To hold your hand in mine
Oh, it is so divine
To have you close to me;
To sit and pass the time
Oh, it is so divine,
You are God’s gift to me.

Wouldn’t have it any other way
Took the low roads and went astray
For within my heart you have stayed
To finally embrace you in my arms, my lover.

(chorus)

Christ, Himself has shown us the light
Brightens the days and skies at night
Shown our hearts it must be right
We lay out and share our trials with one another.
