10 months to go,
January, the month they became "us"
A new year, a new love,
Two years later, time flies,
February, their 2nd, their last Valentine's
You're his, bittersweet baby, you're his,
Lucky to get one more March, more time,
They're down to 5 months left,
It's hard, this facade,
Loving but lost, 
Knowing she'll lose him, 
Expecting the worst because you know it's coming, 
But she's still young enough to fall in love again.
Maybe next time, will be the right time,
She will love again, another "right guy",
No matter what happens, 
He'll never have her whole heart,
No, he can only have a small part,
April and it's still numb,
She knows but it hasn't begun,
May, June July, she looks past it,
She said they just need to enjoy it,
Its out of her mind, it's all in her heart,
She's out of her mind, it's hurting her heart,
1 month left this time,
What will become of them this time?
Maybe next time, will be the right time,
She will love again, another "right guy",
No matter what happens, 
He'll never have her whole heart,
No, he can only have a small part,
The 6th day before she left,
They were happy, more in love than ever,
You don't know what you have until,
The 5th day hearts were heavy,
Out to dinner, help her packing,
The 4th day no one knew what to say,
3rd day silent hugs and unsaid words,
The 2nd day before she left,
Distance and space between,
The day she left, 
sobs racking her chest,
She knew this was right, 
but it hurts all the same,
Like a movie scene, she's driving away,
She can't look back now, she can't stay, 
My most sincere apology dear,
I still can't stay.
