Lyric

I turned onto a road that’s not on any map

And got off alone at a bus stop without a name

I whispered "I’m okay" into the quiet gap

But the wordless scenery shook its head the same

The breeze in that town was always soft and warm

Even our silly jokes turned into sunset gold

There’s still some sand in my pocket from the storm

It makes the sound of those days, as the walk unfolds

To the stars at night, asking if I’m doing fine

I answered back with a single tear of mine

Walking alone is quieter than I thought it would be

The sound of my footsteps fills the heart of me

The season we laughed together vanished with the gulls

And these feelings flow down the river, through the lulls

Even if a different sky should start to spread

Over the shadow of you waving, as I moved ahead

I’m sure I’m in a better place, it’s true

I’m in a much better place than I was with you

Stopping for a moment beneath the streetlight’s glow

Taking a picture of the sky, with nowhere to go

I wrote "The sky is beautiful," leaving it behind

And walked the bittersweet road with a peaceful mind

Walking through the city, blending with the crowd

This town isn't so bad, I say it out loud

But a tiny house tucked deep within an alleyway

Looking so nostalgic, took my breath away

Even though I know there’s no way back to then

I find myself looking back, again and again

Walking alone is quieter than I thought it would be

The songs of the birds fill the ears of me

The place where I cried vanished with the cars at last

And these memories flow down the river to the past

Even if different feelings should start to grow

Inside the heart of you waving, as I go

I’m sure I’m in a better place, it’s true

I’m in a much better place than I was with you

I hope you’re doing well

That old bench, and the cat as well

Even if I’m no longer there to see

The sunset will still be beautiful, eternally

Walking alone is quieter than I thought it would be

The sound of the wind sways the body of me

The place where I laughed vanished with the setting sun

Drifting away as the daylight is finally done

Even if a different expression should start to bloom

On the face of you smiling, dispelling the gloom

I am in a better place, it’s true

I’m in a much happier place

Because I’m starting anew
