So, I guess you'll be leaving today...
I really know even know what to say...
It was just about a week ago that I found out you would be gone.
Best friends forever, Dexter is where you belong.
But I guess this is what you want, not like you had a choice.
I never even really got to let you hear my voice.
I had so much to tell you, so much that now goes unsaid.
We could have made some of the best chapters of our lives together, unwritten, unread.
Everyone says they are happy to see you go,
but if they stopped judging you, and go to know you, that wouldn't be so.
I could tell you I love you, I miss you, oh please don't go.
It wouldn't make a difference, because this is the path that you chose.
It's crazy that just one person like you could change one person like me.
'Cause you just wanted to be you, and I wanted to be anyone but me.
Do me a favor? Go rock it in Georgia, go get your new start.
I know if you try, you could really go far.
Maybe someday I could have been good enough for you, I guess we'll never see.
Make me one promise, that you'll never forget me.
