Lyric

When you told me you wanted to leave

I couldn't believe it was true

I kept asking, “Why would you say that?”

And desperately tried to hold on to you

Because I loved you so much

I thought you felt the same way too

I never once doubted your heart

Not even for a moment

Looking back, I have to laugh—

I was so innocent then

I asked for some time apart to think

Trying to buy a little more time

But your decision never changed

It broke my heart

I had finally found a love I believed in

Yet I destroyed it trying to protect it

As I listened to your feelings

The tears just wouldn't stop

There was nothing I could do

Back then, I was so weak

After we parted, I finally learned

That love alone can't reach every heart

I spent all my time saying, “I love you,”

But never saw the pain you carried inside

I thought staying close was kindness

And never letting go was devotion

I truly believed that was love

But love also needs room to breathe

I was still so immature back then

Only afraid of losing you

I lost sight of who you really were

And couldn't hear the voice inside your heart

As time went by, I realized

Life couldn't end in tears alone

Even the days I spent with you

Deserve more than sadness now

The pain you left behind

Became a kindness I can give to others

Little by little, inside my heart

It started turning into tomorrow

Love isn't about someone completing you

It's something two people grow together

Now I finally understand

So I'll stop blaming myself

One day I caught the scent of spring

Drifting through a distant town

I heard a stranger laughing somewhere

And something moved inside my heart

The next person I meet

I want to truly know before I fall

Their loneliness, their hidden fears

Every part of who they are

Beyond the love that ended with you

A new morning was waiting for me

A little painful, yet somehow warm

And I think

I can love someone again
