You told me you were ready
You said you had to go
I held your hand looked in your eyes and said " I know"
I know it wasn't easy
There wasn't really a choice
So I just stood there helplessly
And choked on my voice
I said that I would be strong
Not let it take me down
I wanted not to be wrong.. This time
But now you're not around
I told you you were free to go
But in the dark I cried
I said that I could do this
But I lied
I never even thought about
My world without you
I took it all for granted
You'd be here to do what you do
It happened so quickly
Took my breath away
I know it wouldn't have changed anything
But I wanted to beg you to stay
I said that I would be strong
Not let it take me down
I wanted not to be wrong... This time
But now you're not around
I told you you were free to go
But in the dark I cried
I said that I could do this
But I lied
Sometimes you just don't know what you have till you watch it slip away
I know that you are happier now, I just wish this pain would go away...
I said that I would be strong
Not let it take me down
I wanted not to be wrong... This time
But now you're not around
I told you you were free to go
But in the dark I cried
I said that I could do this
But I lied
