Lyric

I spat out the words of a cold goodbye

Since that day, I can't escape your crying eyes

They float before me in the dark of night

A memory that flickers like a dying light

"He lived a lie, he cheated and he played"

That’s what they say about the mess I made

They point their fingers, yeah, they talk so loud

But they don't know the truth behind the cloud

I don’t have the right to say "I love you" anymore

Even though you’re everything I’m still searching for

I didn't want to leave, I wanted you to stay

But I let go of your hand and watched you walk away

I let go of your hand... and threw it all away

I knew your heart was wavering in the wind

I saw the cracks where the sorrow lived within

I watched your shadow as you turned to go

With a heavy ache that you will never know

Your love is fading with every breath you take

What could I have done for both our sakes?

Even if I held you, tried to pull you near

The magic's gone, and only ghosts are here

I don’t have the right to say "I love you" anymore

Even though you’re everything I’m still searching for

I didn't want to leave, I wanted you to stay

But I let go of your hand and watched you walk away

Let them talk, let them judge my name

I’ll carry the secret and I’ll take the blame

The truth is buried where the shadows grow

I let go of your hand

Still seeing your eyes

A truth untold

(Just a cold goodbye)
