When you left
I presumed I would fall back into my abysmal void
But life moves on.
The sun still rises without you next to Me.
The world doesn't wither away.
Because
I'm stronger than you thought
I'm stronger than I thought.
life moves on
"Let it go" sang the ice queen Elsa; Just keep swimming said the Blue Tang Dory
"Live in the moment; Forget the entire past and every single worry
Whatever hardship you might have faced, life just moves on" they say
But I would rather be the tiny leaf stuck on my window on a rainy Fall day!!

Painful present moves everything away and puts you alone.
You retrospect, cut out the toxins and stay in your own zone.
But when there was beauty in the past its ok to cling on to those memories astray
And choose to be the tiny leaf stuck on my window on a rainy Fall day!!

The world keeps changing, people change; you live your life and time fleets;
You can't go back or relive the past, but there is one thing that time never defeats-
The memories made, the tears of joy, the laughter shared and fun and play!
They always remain with you like the tiny leaf stuck on my window on a rainy Fall day!

I used to feel that way.
All I needed
was your kiss.
I used to feel that way.
Only to touch your lips.
I used to talk with you
We used to live and laugh.
I'd never thought
we would burn out and crash.
I never saw it coming
never thought I would fall
out of love, out of your arms,
out of it all.
I used to walk toward you,
now, it seems you're further away.
I can't seem to reach you,
So, maybe I will just stay.
I used to feel that way.
I used to feel that way.
Have you felt that way? I do some days.
