What Once Was There

Im not looking forward to this day
My heart is aching with every step I take
My mind is racing with things I have to say
I went on for so long,
What went wrong?

(Chorus) I want to keep going on
I want to keep going strong
But now I know I have to let you go
So I can keep moving on
Missing you night and day
And yet I have nothing to say
You’re gone you’re gone,
But you’ve been gone all along

I count the tears that I cry
No matter how hard I try
To leave you behind
You are always on my mind
My soul empty, my eyes dry
I don’t know if ill be able,
To say goodbye

(Chorus)

I don’t know what life is going to be like ever since you left,
But I know all the memories will be kept,
Useless days of my life, spent
As I watch the sun set
I’ll watch the days go by
Where all you say is, “Hi.”
You’ve caused me so much pain
Playing your little game
You’ve turned my life upsides down
Then again you turned it around.

(Chorus)

You showed me what love really meant
For all the time you spent,
Showing my to love,
To get through life with no shove
Now my eyes are open
A veil lifted
Now I have my choices
My whole world shifted
My scars, all my weight
Now I can finally escape

(Chorus)

Even though we are on pause
My love for you will still go on
Before I had no one to count on
Now I have you to lean on


I want to keep going on
I want to keep going strong
But now I know I have to let you go
So I can keep moving on
Missing you night and day
And yet I have nothing to say
You’re gone you’re gone,
But you’ve been gone all along
