(Verse 1)
We danced through the fire,
With sparks in our eyes,
But the flames started dying,
And smoke filled the skies.
(Chorus)
I tried to hold on,
To the moments we had,
But the echoes remind me,
Of a love that's gone bad.
(Verse 2)
Whispers in shadows,
We reached for the light,
But the distance between us,
Just widened each night.
(Chorus)
I tried to hold on,
To the dreams that we've shared,
But the weight of the silence,
Is too much to bare.
(Bridge)
And I see in your eyes,
A tear and a sigh,
We both know the truth,
It's time to say goodbye.
(Chorus)
I tried to hold on,
But your heart's drifting free,
Though I gave you my all,
You still can’t see me.
(Outro)
So here's my last goodbye,
To the love that we knew,
Though it’s tearing me apart,
I’ll always cherish you.
