Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wake up to your message on my phone,
Miles apart, but your words feel like home,
We've been trying, girl, we've been so strong,
But deep down, I know distance is too long.
[Pre-Chorus]
And vvery night I lie awake,
Dreaming of a love that we couldn't make,
And it's tearing me apart inside,
'Cause I know I've got to say goodbye.
(Chorus)
though it hurts me a lot, I'm letting you go,
Love across the distance, it's a heavy load,
I'm setting you free, though it breaks my heart,
'Cause u deserve a chance to find a brand new start.
A new start...
[Verse 2]
We've shared laughter, we've shared tears,
But this love is fading with the years,
The time zones, the calls that don't ring,
It's a battle, girl, that we just can't win.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every night that I lie awake,
I already know I've got to say goodbye.
[Chorus]
though it hurts me a lot, I'm letting you go,
Love across the distance, it's a heavy load,
I'm setting you free, though it breaks my heart,
'Cause u deserve a chance to find a brand new start.
A new start...
[Bridge]
It's not your fault, it's not mine too,
Just a love that couldn't pull through,
We'll find our peace in separate ways,
But I'll wish u the best the rest of my days....
`[Verse 4]
The calls and texts, they meant the world,
But they can't replace a touch or a word,
The video calls, the dreams we planned,
Are slipping through like grains of sand....
[Pre-Chorus]
Every night that I lie awake,
I already know I've got to say goodbye.
[Chorus]
though it hurts me a lot, I'm letting you go,
Love across the distance, it's a heavy load,
I'm setting you free, though it breaks my heart,
'Cause u deserve a chance to find a brand new start.
A new start...
[Outro]
So this is goodbye, my love, my friend,
I hope you find your happiness again,
Though we're parting ways, know you always meant,
The world to me, but this is the end, the end...
