Take This Love With You

I gave freely, never to reach you.
If words fail me, then pain will teach you.
Time will proceed—take all you need,
But take this love with you.

My words are wasted; my heart is hollow.
The road is waiting—I will not follow.
Say what you'll say, and go your way,
But take this love with you.

Leave me nothing, or please don't leave me.
Pay close attention: you must believe me,
It's no concern—never return,
But take this love with you.
