Departure
Trusting in someone and then discovering the unpleasant truth.
A daydream, a nightmare, nothing I thought would ever come to pass
Confessions, life secrets, brought us close and ripped us both apart
You made me, you changed me, promised me forever and all things
I let you, I left you nothing but four years and a golden ring
All that time ago, I was so afraid
Of all the things I’d do, to frighten you away…
When I was unsure you encouraged me
When I hesitated you put out your hand to draw me in
Now I’ve said to much and you don’t hear me
I danced my last dance for you, now there’s nothing left to do.
Oh tell me the reason why you suddenly look the other way
Oh tell me, what distance is it that is keeping you away?
You tell me, “no reason, there’s just nothing left here still to say.”
You tell me, “this distance is just that I can’t feel the same way.”
All that time ago, I was so afraid
Of all the things I’d do, to frighten you away…
When I was unsure you encouraged me
When I hesitated you put out your hand to draw me in
Now I’ve said too much and you won’t hear me
I gave my last chance to you, now I’ve nothing left to do.
If time heals, and winds change, promises can blow away like dust
And they say, such wisdom, “nothing in this life is ever just”.
