Saudade

It's hard to say goodbye
There's a void here
I have to remember
The example you left for me
I want to follow
I want to honor
All my days

It hurts to see you leave
But I feel so proud of what I learned
With you, yeah, I know
You needed to go
No one stays here
One thing I feel I will say

Is that longing hurts
It tears my chest and corrodes me
I can't avoid it, no
I feel so much
I feel everything

The memories will remain
I already know where to keep
In my heart
There at the bottom
Deep down
