This song is by Gavin Rossdale and it's called Love Remains the Same.

A thousand times I've seen you standing.
Gravity like a lunar landing
Make me want to run till I find you.
I shut the world away from here
Drift to you, you're all I hear
Everything we know fades to black.

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending.

I never thought that I had anymore to give
Pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
But love remains the same.

Find the place where we escape
Take you with me for a space
The city buzz, sounds just like a fridge
I walk the streets through seven bars
I had to find just where you are
The faces seems to blur, they're all the same.

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending.

I never thought that I had anymore to give
Pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
But love remains the same.

So much more to say
So much to be done
Don't you trick me out
We shall overcome
So all have stayed in place
We should have had the sun
Could have been inside
Instead we're over here.

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending
Too much time, too long defending
You and I are done pretending.

I never thought that I had anymore to give
Pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
Everything will change.

I, oh I, I
wish this could last forever
I, oh I, I
As if we could last forever.

Love remains the same
Love remains the same.

This song says a lot.
And if you don't understand, let me spell it out for you. I'll tell you how it makes me feel.

It's as if I'm falling apart because you're leaving. It's like when I lost you and I couldn't think straight. I couldn't see straight. I couldn't even breathe without you. You were all I had. All I have. Without you I am nothing. Without you I am worthless. But with you, I'm invincible. With you I can breathe. I can fly. I can think.
I wish you were here all the time. But you gotta go. You gotta go and be free. Be you.

Don't look back, love. Don't hesitate. Your life awaits. A new chapter had begun. I'll still be in your heart. I never really left. I'll tell you I'm fine just so you can go.
Please.
You're free.
Just go.
I might die...

But you're
Finally free...

I'll drink myself to death. I'll sit in the hot sun and drink to believe that you'll be back soon enough.
Truth is, I drink because the pain in my liver is my hero. The pain in my heart is my new friend, too. I invite it all in. So the pain of losing you is a little less.

But love remains....

....The same
