The saddest sigh I ever was to see
Accompanied closely by selfish thought
The one thing that I couldn't have with me
By another's side unlike he ought
I find my thoughts unto this are most cruel
Not mine to own nor is he mine to guide
Resistance did not keep me safe from you
And so I'm forced to keep feelings inside
You left me here, abandoned to my fate
Sometimes I wish I'd never seen your face
To stop the flood I now must shut the gate
It will all end when I last leave this place
This is the saddest portion of my year
You will not bring me happiness I fear
