As You Go - Jess Penner

As You Go-Jess Penner
I know it’s close we’re reaching the end
my mind says run but love steps in
to hold you up against my skin
I’ve never felt so open so broken
We were born to fall apart
and there’s no way to shield these hearts
to build it up and to watch it fall
or to never build at all
I don’t want to say goodbye
even though it’s time to move on
But as you go I want you to know
that I will not forget all the ways you’ve grown me
I wish I could be where you are
Cross the thin line into the deep
you close your eyes and you take that leap
I’d follow just to stop this heart from breaking
I don’t want to say goodbye
even though it’s time to move on
But as you go I want you to know
that I will not forget all the ways you’ve grown me
I wish I could be where you are
but it’s not my time
And if someday we meet again
in a different life with another plan
well maybe then we won’t have to say goodbye
I tried to hold on to you
I begged you not to leave
kissed the air back into lips gone blue
‘till the last heart beat
But as you go I want you to know
that I will not forget all the ways you’ve grown me
I hope someday we will meet again
and maybe then we won’t have to say goodbye
