Nights like this, they often make me think of you,
The clocks ticks while I try not to count time
But seconds feel like hours when I'm not with you.
I cry as I read the messages that were sent, I'm fine;
But truly, I'm lost in a sea of sadness and regret.
Nights like this, well I wish I could say I've had worse,
But when you love someone this much and then they leave,
Well now, is there actually anything worse?
I wanted it to last forever, but you can't force someone to stay,
Not when they so desperately need, and want so badly to go away.
Nights like this; all raining and cold
And I really thought that we, together, could perhaps grow old.
But plans change and people always lie, now the truth is revealed,
And all I ever did or do, seem like nothing without you.
Nights like this, I will cry with the rain,
I will fall and break so I can rise with the sun when I awake
Time will hurt as memories remake and make me feel insane
but I know time can't heal my tragic heartbreak.
Nights like this, I will remember...
That you were once the one
Now months have passed, and I walk alone
But it's okay, because now I've learned how to stand on my own.
