We were once a spark,
Lost in the dark,
But now you're fading, slipping far away,
You said it's for the best,
But left me with the rest
Of questions in my mind, like why'd you stay?
You're staring from a distance,
But you turn away,
Is it guilt or just resistance,
Or something you can't say?
Chorus:I know you left to protect me,
But I'm here alone and free,
A shadow in your memory,
But I'm stronger than you see,
You can keep your distance,
But I'm here alone and free,
You can keep your distance,
But I'll rise above the pain ,
I'll keep walking through the rain,
With my eyes away from the past ,
And I'll find a love that's built to last .
I see you looking back,
A glance I can't track,
But it's too late now for us to rewind,
You said you couldn't stay,
To fight the fears away,
But I've found a way to heal my mind .
You're staring from a distance,
But you turn away,
Is it guilt or just resistance,
Or something you can't say?
Chorus: I know you left to protect me,
But I'm here alone and free,
A shadow in your memory,
But I'm stronger than you see,
You can keep your distance,
But I'll rise above the pain,
And I'll find a love that's built to last .
Bridge:and thought your love feels distant,
I'll be alright,
I'll hold my heart with courage,
And find the light .
Chorus (outro):
I know you left to protect me,
But I'm here alone and free,
A shadow in your memory,
But I'm stronger than you see,
You can keep your distance,
But I'll rise above the pain,
I'll keep walking through the rain,
With my eyes away from the past,
And I'll build a love that's built to last.
