Lyric

Neither of us said "Goodbye"

The words were left to fade and die

I stood alone in a world so wide

Waiting for you to be by my side

But I’m tired of the ghost of you

Watching the sky turn a lonely blue

I’m no longer a child, I’ve grown today

I’ll embrace every pain that comes my way

I can walk this road on my own two feet

Through the wind and the rain and the city heat

I won't be a lost girl, I won't lose my way

I’m moving forward into the day

The end came quick, with such a chill

A sudden silence, cold and still

You’re like a stranger I never knew

Where in the world is the real you?

I’ve learned the lesson, I’ve felt the sting

Of how fleeting a love and a dream can ring

I’m no longer a child, I understand

The shifting of time and the falling sand

I can make the choices that I need to make

I won't hold onto a hope that’s bound to break

No more wishing on stars that have fallen down

I’m wearing my strength like a quiet crown

The moon is twisting in the sky

The stars are shaking as they fly

The ink is bleeding on the page

Your photograph is showing its age

Everything’s blurring, melting from view

Or is it just the tears that I’m crying for you?

I’m no longer a child, I’ll take the blow

I’ll accept the things that I have to know

Next time, I’ll find a love that’s true

Not a shadow or a memory of you

I’ll find someone wonderful, someone new

And start again under skies of blue

I’m not a lost girl

I can walk alone

Looking for a real love

No longer a child
