Moved On

*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
