Before I Go - Peter Cincotti

Breathing out, breathing in

Trying to find the straight within

Feeling like these all things make believe

It’s time for me to figure out

What goodbyes are all about

And what tomorrows hiding up those leave.

But before I go,

Let me look at you for one last time

Let me freeze this picture in my mind

Of we’re all about to leave behind

Because I know

As the minutes time disappear

If I keep this memory crystal clear

Part of me will stay right here

Your reflection’s going to last

In the memories of the past

And I won’t let them crack

Cause when the colors of tonight

Try to turn to black and white

I’ll close my eyes and bring them back

So before I go

Let me look at you for one last time

Let me freeze this picture in my mind

Of we’re all about to leave behind

Even though I wish the ending didn’t have to start

As the seconds pull our hands apart

Let me hold you in my arm

Before I go

You can fight the future

If you know how

Cause the future always loses ‘till now

Breathing out breathing in

Trying to find the straight within

Feeling like these all things make believe
