Everyone's got something to say.
But they don't listen,
'cause they don't care.
Just want to softly slip away.
As moonlight glistens on the ocean,
the Mother whispers in the air.
I tried to leave it all behind.
Lay the past to rest
and free myself from pain.
Don't know how I could be so blind!
They'd never let it be that easy.
So they destroyed the plans I'd lain.
It doesn't matter now.
All the bridges are ablaze.
There's nothing left of what I knew.
I guess it's funny how I told you
"I won't desert you."
I never meant to hurt you.
-
I want you
to know that I'd do anything
to hold you one more time.
Your beauty is the only thing
I need you
to understand that you don't have
to be the things I see
to hear those words from me.
I love you...
-
But everybody's got their games to play.
I stand on the sideline,
forever watching from afar.
Why would you believe the things they say?
Do you remember when I'd hold you
and we'd look up at the stars?
You told me that you longed to feel again.
But every time I brought that closer,
you just moved further away.
You used to say I take away your pain.
But now I just seem to burn you
with every word I say.
-
So I want you
to go and find your calling.
To spread your wings,
chase freedom without falling,
and I need you
to understand that I could live without you.
It's not about you.
but I love you
to smile the way you do
each time I'm with you,
and there's still so much more
that I would give you.
I'll relive the joy we've had
each time I close my eyes.
No future and no past.
I love you
