The Night I Returned the Key

"I never thought it would end."

I believed that with you by my side, we could overcome any obstacle.

Even so, the end quietly arrived.

I left the spare key in the mailbox,
and left without ringing the doorbell or looking back.

This is truly the last time I'll come here.

Not a show of bravado or optimism,
this is a heartbreak ballad depicting a "farewell without a word."

A song I hope you'll listen to alone at night.
