We Will Meet Again

Words and Music by Christopher Kent

You waited to see me before you said goodbye
At the end of your rope
Tired of living a lie
I told you everything would be all right
But I could not get you through the night
Through the long, cold night

CHORUS:

But you gave me your love
You called me your friend
Nothing else really matters in the end
The hearts that time has broken
Someday will mend
And I know you and I will meet again

I know how you loved me
And how hard you tried
I was so lucky to have you by my side
Maybe I was wrong when I asked you to stay
There was nothing I could do to make your pain go away
There was nothing I could do

Still you gave me your love
You called me your friend
Nothing else really matters in the end
The hearts that time has broken
Someday will mend
And I know you and I will meet again

Now I look out at that field
Where the oak tree stood
I know things didn’t work out
The way you thought they would
But your memory will stand
Just as tall as that tree
And I will try to give the kind of love to others
That you gave to me

You opened my heart
And you gave me your love
You called me your friend
Nothing else really matters in the end
The hearts that time has broken
Someday will mend
And I know you and I will meet again
