Nothing can compare to what you gave me
Nothing can compare to what you told me
All I want you to be is happy
If leaving you means you'll be happy then so be it
As long as I see you smile again
You'll be my light tonight as I leave you alone
Who am I supposed to be if I'm weighing you down
You're drowning in my shadow
I'm sorry I never noticed until now
I promise you this till the day I die
That I promise you I won't cry
It was my decision so I left
I now stand in your shadow
As you once stood before mine
