*Author's Note: I wrote this song to provide closure for myself when I had FINALLY moved on from my all-time crush. At first it felt like there was this void in my heart because I was so used to him occupying a space there, but it also felt like a weight had been taken off my back and I was at last freed.
〜VERSE 1〜
You were the one I liked longest
Thought I'd never be able to let you go
But one day I felt this emptiness
And realized I was no longer haunted by your ghost
Used to think about you everyday
And dream about you too often
But now my mind has freed up space
To let a new love come in
〜PRE-CHORUS〜
Time took its sweet old time
But after all these years
I've learned to move on with my life
〜CHORUS〜
I'm finally free
from the feelings that once chained me
I'll leave you in my past
as a memory encased in glass
It's not wasted time
Just a lesson that took a while to find
You made me stronger
And I won't wait for you any longer
〜VERSE 2〜
Someone called out your name one day
And I turned to see you walking behind me
It had been a while since I saw your face
But I continued to walk on indifferently
I don't search for you in the crowds
And I deleted your contact
My head's no longer in the clouds
A weight's been lifted off my back
〜PRE-CHORUS 〜
Time took its sweet old time
But after all these years
I've learned to move on with my life
〜CHORUS〜
I'm finally free
from the feelings that once chained me
I'll leave you in my past
Cause I'm over you at last
It's not wasted time
Just a lesson that took a while to find
You made me stronger
And I won't wait for you any longer
〜BRIDGE〜
Even though the feelings are gone
I have one final question to ask
After all this time
Did you even once feel anything at all
When our eyes would lock countless times
Maybe it's something I'll never know
So I'll leave it at that and let you go
〜CHORUS/OUTRO〜
I'm finally free
from the feelings that once chained me
I'll leave you in my past
And swear to never look back
Time has healed the pain
While my mind has erased your name
You made me stronger
And I won't miss you any longer
