left behind

[Verse 1] Sixteen years upon this earth, I grew up right with you Now you’re far away, and the pain cuts deep, like a knife straight through [Pre-Chorus] I write songs till four a.m., stay awake for days on end Looking for a reason why you pulled away, where it all went wrong back then [Chorus] But inside my heart you’re still here, I still love you the same No matter how close or how far, I’ll wait for the day you change [Verse 2] All those years together, all the promises that broke I don’t see that light anymore when I look at you — who are you now, who are you though? [Pre-Chorus] I see you in every face, every night, every song Your absence weighs so heavy now, I’ve been feeling alone for so long [Chorus] But inside my heart you’re still here, I still love you the same No matter how close or how far, I’ll wait for the day you change [Bridge] Thank you for the time you gave, for the moments I still hold tight Maybe this is where it ends, but hope survives — I’m learning how to say goodbye [Outro] You’re a part of me, I miss you more than you know But I’ll keep moving forward, ‘cause I’m strong enough now — for us both
