• Never far away,
    Even though miles are long.
    The years may spin stories,
    But the truth lies in song.
    I cry out for you,
    But the miles are so long;
    My voice won't carry that far.

    You smiled at me,
    Even though it meant little.
    And yeah, you're my best friend.
    But the truth is brittle.
    I'm wishing for time,
    But it meant so little;
    No one will grant me my wish.

    So now I'm asking, please,
    Let me forget about you this time.
    I'm not asking for much,
    Just let me leave you behind.
    It hurts like nothing else,
    But in the end, everything will die.
    And so we can move on,
    Please let me leave you behind.

    The one that got away-
    I'm giving up on you now.
    But just maybe one day,
    You'll explain to me how
    I never saw it,
    How my giving up for now
    Just might save a heart or two.

    So now I'm asking, please,
    Let me forget about you this time.
    I'm not asking for much,
    Just let me leave you behind.
    It hurts like nothing else,
    But in the end, everything will die.
    And so we can move on,
    Please let me leave you behind.
