I stand here at the edge of dreams,
Where leaving isn't what it seems.
This place I love, it calls to stay,
But something pulls me far away.

The streets I know, the skies I've seen,
The moments where my heart has been—
They linger, heavy, bittersweet,
And yet I feel my restless feet.

A better chance, a brighter sky,
A future that I can't deny.
But leaving hurts, it stings, it breaks,
For every step, a heartache makes.

I say goodbye to what I've known,
To chase a path that's all my own.
And though I leave, I take with me
The love this place has given free.

One day, perhaps, I'll circle back,
And find the joy I seem to lack.
But now I go, with tearful eyes,
To seek my place beneath new skies.
