You know, I'm really truly grateful to have met somebody just like you
But life, it goes along, and from what I know, that means we'll have to part soon
Now carrying these memories which pain me with a smile
I walk away from yesterday to our fated goodbye
If I were to go through life living just to take somebody else's place
Then I would rather have been born as a pebble, living out my peaceful days
Then maybe we could then avoid misunderstandings too
And then maybe I would never have ever gotten to know you
All I ever wanted was for you to hear my thoughts, all my dreams and fears, just say them out
Yet I go and lie to you and say I'd rather not, even though you never found me out
I'm just so much weaker than you thought I ever was, than you ever would’ve wanted to believe
So why, tell me, tell me
With this endless pain in my heart, tearing me apart, but also you beside me
Can't you see how happy I'd be, I'd smile and I'd say, it was all for the best you see
As the world in front of me melts and fades away, I only have one thing to say
These miracles flooding me won't make it go away
Because I can still hear your voice calling out my name
If you’re just going to get lost and never find a place where you belong
Deep in my heart, I wished you’d let someone else do that, but I knew all along
Pretending not to understand, we turned the other cheek
I’m sure one day we’ll laugh again as the cycle then repeats
All that I can do is beg as hard as I can, but the nightmares keep on haunting me
Even though I’ve seen you leave a hundred thousand times, I can only watch you disappear
I'm just so much weaker than you ever thought I was, than you ever would’ve wanted to believe
So why, tell me, tell me
For the nights I won’t make it through, I spend beside you, while holding onto your hand
Telling me I will and I can, I pray every night that days like this will never end
Painting colours, vivid and bright, I see every time I go ahead and close my eyes
Just what should I do so everything remains the same?
Hey, is it alright if I keep calling out your name?
In the moment I was born, I wouldn’t stop screaming
Saying that I wanted to fade away and disappear
Ever since the day I stopped, I had always been searching
For the one I'd someday meet, for the you that has to leave
With this endless pain in my heart, tearing me apart, but also you beside me
Can't you see how happy I'd be, I'd smile and I'd say, it was all for the best you see
As the world in front of me melts and fades away, I only have one thing to say
These miracles flooding me won't make it go away
Because I can still hear your voice calling out my name
