Hated to see you go

Hated to see you go
Almost had tears in my eyes
Whatever you have let me know
Are only a pure heart's cries

To not hurt anyone is your aim
You fear you may do it someday
Rest assured, there is no shame in your claim
I have only come to love you more this way

All it takes is a little integrity
To keep two souls from tearing away
Just the minimum possible reciprocity
And we can be on our way
