lyrics

Stop, look around
The wind blows colder now
Lost what we found, but the weight
Has fallen from our shoulders now
Stop, listen how
The rain falls harder now
Don’t make a sound, it’s okay
It’s out of our control for now
And before I let you go
I just want to let you know

Thank you for the letters that you wrote
And thank you for the loving words you spoke
I’m sorry for the promises I broke
But I think that I was meant to be alone
Our hearts will keep on beating like before
And our bodies will survive through the cold
I’m sorry that I had to let this go
But I think that I was meant to be alone

Stop, look around
Our time grows shorter now
Night’s falling down, but the days
Are far from being over now
And before I let you go
I just want to let you know

Thank you for the letters that you wrote
And thank you for the loving words you spoke
I’m sorry for the promises I broke
But I think that I was meant to be alone
Our hearts will keep on beating like before
And our bodies will survive through the cold
I’m sorry that I had to let this go
But I think that I was meant to be alone

Stop, look around
Face forward, find the ground
And breathe in, breathe out
Smell the roses if you’re feeling down
Oh I never meant to hurt you, this I know
But I know that we can make it on our own
