Verse 1]
I'm letting you go, today's the day,
I pack my things and walk away.
My voice trembles, my throat is dry,
Fighting a flood of tears as I say "Goodbye".
I'm tired of pretending that nothing is wrong,
But you and I were doomed all along.
[Bridge]
Almost had it all, got closer than the rest,
Life with or without you... I'm not sure what happens next.
Even though i want I to, I know that i can't stay,
Where the sky is never blue but always a shade of gray.
[Chorus]
Turn into the wind ready to start again.
The tears will dry though I dont know when.
Walking these streets cold and alone
Where life will lead me now it's unknown
But I know you'll always have a piece of my soul
and I'll carry you with me to keep my heart whole
[Verse 2]
Once upon a time I thought you cared,
When I see you I can't help but to stop and stare.
Into your ocean blue eyes gazing deep Into mine,
With your fingers tangled in my hair, our bodies intertwined
I sacrificed my peace always filled with self doubt,
My self esteem crippled... this is what I tried to tell you about.
[Bridge]
Almost had it all, got closer than the rest,
Life with or without you... I'm not sure what happens next.
Even though i want I to, I know that i can't stay,
Where the sky is never blue but always a shade of gray.
[Chorus]
Turn into the wind ready to start again.
The tears will dry though I dont know when.
Walking these streets cold and alone
Where life will lead me now it's unknown
But I know you'll always have a piece of my soul
and I'll carry you with me to keep my heart whole
[Outro]
Our memories they haunt me
Creep into my mind when I fall asleep
The echos at midnight
Of the whispered vows we swore to keep
Ill hold on to the life I thought we'd share
Can't forget this love nothing else could ever compare
Almost had it all, got closer than the rest, (closer than the rest)
Life with or without you... I'm not sure what happens next.(don't want to settle for second best)
Ill hold on to the life I thought we'd share
Can't forget this love nothing else could ever compare
