Story Behind The Song
The death of someone very dear to me. Hence the title.
Song Description
Someone leaves a relationship for whatever reason, and neither party is happy at the outcome. A request for guidance. A refusal to move on. An acknowledgment of change, of growth. A realisation of the intransience of a moment and the power of a memory.

Lyrics
Even on a day like today
I find tears in my eyes.
Wishing that they'd just go away
Oh There's no place to hide.
From the love
That we had
That you pushed away from me
I don't know anybody who's ever made me feel like this after so long.
You were always on my mind
I can't say goodbye
You were always on my mind
I can't say goodbye
So this is the end of the beginning
My first heartbreak was you
And I don't know when I'll be leaving
But I hope you'll help me through
Wherever you are,
I want you to know,
That this is the last time,
That i will begin,
To let myself go,
This is the last...
Anything that reminds me of you
I keep close to my heart.
Even though i know what to do
I'm not willing to start
To forget
What we had
To lose sight of you.
(Instrumental)
So this is the end of the beginning
My first heartbreak was you
And I don't know when I'll be leaving
But I hope you'll help me through
Even on a day like today I know I have to move on.
Wishing that nothing had ever changed,
It did and now life must go on.
I close my eyes.
And I see.
And I know i will never forget.
Oh I don't know anyone who's ever made me feel like this after so long.
You are always on my mind
I can't say goodbye.
You were always on my mind
I can't say goodbye.
