7 Months

it's so hard to say good bye
 and when I do I want to cry
 but I've got to let you fly
 wish this song could make you stay
 7 months
 I heard you say – baby
 As you checked your messages this morning
 Pack your bags leave it all for a country far away
 The job that you'd been dreaming of was calling
 It hasn't been very long
 At least according to my closest friends
 Watch your heart take it slow have some fun is all they say
 But I'm still spending all the time I can
 With you
 it's so hard to say good bye
 and when I do I want to cry
 but I've got to let you fly
 wish this song could make you stay
 funny how
 this twist of fate
 goes to show that nothing's ever perfect
 had to kiss a lot of frogs 'till you finally came along
 but now we don't have a lot of time to work with
 you'll be away for so long
 already writing letters in my head
 so we walk and we laugh like we'll always be together
 as we take one step closer to the edge
 but we still pretend
 it's so hard to say good bye
 and when I do I want to cry
 but I've got to let you fly
 wish this song could make you stay
 it's so hard to say good bye
 and when I do I want to cry
 but I've got to let you fly
 wish this song could make you stay
