It's hard to admit to yourself
That you've fallen out of love
Because it was so special
It was agony to lose it
Physical pain to see it slip away
Now only bittersweet memories
All thats left, to my regret
I wish I could change how I feel
Because everything became confusing
Everything's conflicted
But how to turn back the clock?
How to flip the pages back?
And though I no longer have your arms around me
I no longer have those chains tying me down
And though I'm standing alone
I'm standing ON my own
Will you miss me when I'm gone?
Will you even know that I've left?
Will you realize that I won't be back?
Because I've had it, I'm through
Finish the chapter, close the book
The end is here, time for a new beginning
All alone, but on my own, free of you
You can push me, but you can't control me
I have only one regret and only one wish
I miss the caring, the love we shared
I wish I hadn't fallen out of love with you
But what can I do?
I can't turn around and start all over again
I can't go back and do things differently
Though I wish it wasn't so, I can't change it
And though I wish differently, I don't want it to change
And, for the first time in my life, I'm free
Nothing's holding me back from being me
Nothing's in the way of me living my life
The way I want to live it, the way I want it to be
I have no need to impress, no burdens of a loved one
And though I sometimes yearn for companionship
I know I can have someone to hold me when I want it
But sometimes I feel empty inside,
With no hope of being filled again
I was once in love with you, but that love died
I still love you, nothing is ever going to change that
But being in love with you, I'll never have that again
