You close your eyes and let the tears
Say the words you cannot say;
You breathe the air and feel the breeze
And let the wind wash them away.
You said you brought upon yourself,
the scorching pain you cannot heal;
You said he broke the heart in you,
And he never knew that still.
You said you weren't thin enough
You weren't beautiful enough
For him to like you
But it's not good enough.
You leash upon yourself
the unknown why's only he can reply;
And every waking hour held
the memory of your every time.
But don't tell that you're not enough
because he didn't love you.
He just didn't have the eyes,
to see the beauty in you.
One will come along
who'd see you for you
And when he walks to you,
you'd forget the pain the other one gave you.
But for now, just close your eyes,
And let the tears say the pain,
But don't forget to open them,
And move forward to your way.
You have to let your grasp go
And feel no regret,
Look to the beauty of tomorrow,
And leave the glow of the sunset.
