after leaving you

the world seems a different view

I walk these empty streets alone

with memories that won't be outgrown

the sun still shines but not the same

as the warmth we once had

is now a flame that flickers in the past embrace

I try to find a new space

after leaving you

I'm learning how to be brand new

but every step I take I still feel the ache

the love we had it's hard to break

I'm moving on or so I slay

but your ghost is here to stay

after leaving you I'm lost and blue

searching for a leaf it's not with you

the nights are long without your sighs

I look at the stars and wonder why

we couldn't make it through the end

now I'm on this journey to mend

I pass by places we used to go

and in my heart the feelings still flow

but I know I have to let it go

even though it's a slow and painful show

after leaving you

I'm learning how to be brand new

but every step I take I still feel the ache

the love we had it's hard to break

I'm moving on or so I say

but your ghost is here to stay

after leaving you I'm lost and blue

searching for a me that's not with you

I'll find my way in time

leave these shadows behind

though it's hard to deny

the love that won't die

but I'll keep on walking

even if I'm still talking to the memories of you

I'll make it through

after leaving you

I'm learning how to be brand new

but every step I take I still feel the ache

the love we had it's hard to break

I'm moving on but so I say

but your ghost is here to stay

after leaving you

I'm lost in you

searching for a me that's not with you

come
