Hey Little One

What if love could never fade?
Our stomachs always kept the butterflies we had on our first date
Then youd have never slipped away
Whats now a cloudless empty sky would signify a brighter day
How do you know when its time to give in?
How do you know when its time?

Hey, little one
Heres to a moment of life in a year come and gone
Ill miss you my friend
Ill learn to stand on my own til I find love again
Heres to good times, little one
Heres to goodbye, little one
Heres to the year you were my little one

Warmer weather eases pain
But you gave the coldest shoulder as you showed that seasons change
Just a year ago today
Youd brought hope for warmer winters; New York City last December paved the way
How do you know when its time to give in?
How do you know when its time?

The time to overcome is well overdue
Out with the old, independently new
But Id rather be depressed than happy without you
Oh God, please carry me through

What if this was just a dream?
When I awakened from this nightmare you were lying next to me?
Things would change if that were true
Rather than holding onto memories, Id be holding onto you
