I hope that I treated you well
for the time that you were mine
I hope that I did everything I could
to cherish your heart and mind

I hope that I made you a better woman
as you made me a better man
I hope that we found, and didn't miss
the paths for our lives in The Plan

I hope that each moment you spent with me
was as good as I spent with you
a moment of healing, a moment of love
a moment of beauty and truth

I hope that as you go your way
on the road that your life takes
that you will remember with fondness and joy
our moments of love and faith

I hope that one day, we'll see one another
and that in that moment you'll say
"Thank you for letting me go, for now, I know
that it was The Way."
