I'm Holding On To Something That Used To Be There Hoping It Will Come Back, Knowing It Won't

should i stay should i go?

"i don't need space. i need you."
it was like a dream. that never came true.

exactly a year ago, my snoring was a lullaby. hah...
and now, i don't even hear your voice at night. laughing.

i'm letting go. the only one i called mine.
i'm letting go. the love of my life.
i'm letting go. and you're not stopping.

you were right. it was a just a simple space. that you need. but i can't give.
i love you, B. more than anything else. but i can't seem to hold on to ...nothing.

i always thought that you gonna be there. but the last time i turn around, you were nowhere.

I know they say if you love somebody
You should set them free
But it sure is hard to do
Yeah, it sure is hard to do
And I know they say if they don't come back again
Then it's meant to be
But those words ain't pulling me through
Cos I'm still in love with you
I spend each day here waiting for a miracle
But it's just you and me going through the mill

This is the long goodbye
Somebody tell me why
Two lovers in love can't make it
Just what kind of love keeps breaking a heart?
No matter how hard I try
You're gonna make me cry
Come on, baby, it's over, let's face it
All that's happening here is a long goodbye

Sometimes I ask my heart did we really
Give our love a chance
and I know without a doubt
I turned it inside out
And if we walked away
would make more sense
But it tears me up inside
Just to think we still could try
How long must we keep riding on a carousel
Going round and round and never getting anywhere?



i was afraid to let go, for fear of losing my one true love. But the pain of holding on slowly tears at the once strong heart.
