I sit with eyes wide open

Filled with tears I can’t explain

The lonely days turn into nights

I slowly go insane

Tangled thoughts take over

A mind that’s filled with doubt

I wish that I could tell you

But the words just won’t come out

With all my heart I wonder

How we’ve grown so far apart

I live my days without you

And I don’t know where to start

Stuck between the distance

Of healing and regret

With all my heart I pray sometimes

That I could just forget.

Forget how much I miss you

How much I need you here

Anger fades to sorrow

Pride gives into fear

Promises left empty

Broken dreams we threw away

With all my heart I search for words

That might have made you stay

I still don’t have the answers

All I really know

Is with all my heart I love you

So tonight, I’ll let you go.
