A Few Feet Away

Can you feel those clouds
Weeping on your window?
Those are my tears my love
Can you hear them flow?

Standing a few feet away
I look after you
It is what I remained
In this world to do

I stayed by you
Until you moved on
When you started laughing
and not holding on

Watching your heart find love
And wedding vows exchanged
Watching you and me
Become more estranged

Your son, he is three now
It's time I moved on

Can you feel those clouds
Weeping on your window?
My final goodbye my love
To Heaven, I must go.
