[Intro]
Sweet words, wrapped in darkness, heavy silence fills the air
Looking back on a love that once was, now I gotta clear away the despair
[Verse 1]
You were tender, you were kind, a protector in disguise
Gave me warmth when I was cold, love reflected in your eyes
But the shadow grew too heavy, your watchful eyes, too tight
Lost myself in your devotion, couldn't breathe or see the light
[Pre-Chorus]
It hurts to say goodbye, even though I know it's right
Fading memories of us, trying to hold on tight
Can't fall in love again, if I cherish every part of you
But I fear I’d lose myself, in a love that wasn’t true
[Chorus]
Thank you for the love, for the kindness and care
But I need to walk away, need to breathe the air
We can be friends, let’s set each other free
Sometimes love says goodbye, painfully but honestly
[Verse 2]
You thought I cheated on you, questioned every move I made
Trust torn into pieces, love starts to fade
I had to choose myself, even if it broke my heart
To leave behind what we had, to be whole again, restart
[Pre-Chorus]
It hurts to say goodbye, even though I know it's right
Fading memories of us, trying to hold on tight
Can't fall in love again, if I cherish every part of you
But I fear I’d lose myself, in a love that wasn’t true
[Chorus]
Thank you for the love, for the kindness and care
But I need to walk away, need to breathe the air
We can be friends, let’s set each other free
Sometimes love says goodbye, painfully but honestly
[Bridge]
Memories linger, but I have to move on
Find my own way now, where I belong
No more chains, no more fears, just me to find
Moving forward, leaving the past behind
[Outro]
Goodbye isn't the end, just a new beginning
Grateful for the love, though it was fleeting
We’ll carry the good, forget the pain
In letting go, I find my way again
