bEfoRE lettinG me Go...

I love you so... that's why I set you free...

I almost forgot the song... the lyrics... the meaning. I almost overlooked it. But last night, it invades the airwaves. I never thought playing it again, the track 007 in my compact disc. Everything flashed back. Is it loving when it means setting one free? I asked this a million times and yet there's no answer. It is really difficult saying "I love you" while letting one go. HOw is loving when there's no one to love? It's difficult to answer but some sides convince me that it is... to love is to set free. Letting one free, for him to be happy and I guess it's a selfless love. Indeed, a selfless love!

He did it for me. And he gave this track before letting me go.
"I must go... play the seventh track, it's for you."
So I did. I have no idea what's in theseventh track. I finally
played theseventh track and the lines invades the airwaives.

I could still remember yesterday
We were so in love in a special way
And knowing that you love me makes me
Feel oh so rightBut now I feel lost
Don't know what to doEach and everyday
I think of you
Holding back the tears
I'm trying with all my might
Refrain 1:
Because you're gonna leave me standing
All aloneAnd I know I've got to face tomorrow on my own
But baby before I let you go I want to say
I love you
I hope that you're listening coz it's true, baby
You'll be forever in my heart
And I know that no one else will do, yeah
So before I let you go I want to sayI love you...hmmm... I wish that it would be just
Like beforeI know I could have given you so
Much more
Even though you know I'd give the
New one, my love
I miss your smile;
I miss your kiss
Each and everyday I'll ever miss
Coz baby it's you that I'm always
Dreaming of
Refrain 2:
Because you're gonna leave me standing
All aloneAnd I know I've got to face tomorrow on My own
But baby before I let you go I want to say
I love you
I hope that you're listening coz it's true, baby
You'll be forever in my heart
And I know that no one else will do, yeah
So before I let you go, I want to say, yeah
Bridge:Letting you go is never easy
But I love you so
That's why I'll set you free, yeah
And I know, someday, somehow,
I'll find the way
To leave them all behind me
Give it all beneath to keep it baby
Refrain 3:
Before I let you go, I want to say
I love you
I hope that you're listening
Coz it's true, baby
You'll be forever in my heart
And I know that no one else will do, yeah
So before I let you go I want to say...
So before I let you go I want to say...I love you


I never missed a single word. He meant it. I remembered those days we're together. He used to put flowers in my bag after flag ceremonies. I first touched the guitar because of him. He made me feel special. But he thought it's not right. And so, he set me free because he loved me so.

He is now a part of my memory. And as long as theseventh track lives in me, he will never be forgotten.

He loves me so... that's why he set me free.
