Tell me anyone just had this is supposed to go
Tell me how I make my heart see the truth
When for so long now it's been in his hands
I shed a lonely tear reminiscing on our youth.
Tell me how to just walk away and not look back
Tell me how do I let the memories just fade
It meant the world to me to make each and every one
Now every moment without him here, they continue to replay.
Each morning when I wake all alone it's so hard for me
I dislike the dark of night, but I fear the dawn
For inside my dreams we are snuggled up close
There's no sorrow there, together is where we truly belong.
Tell me how I'm supposed to tell him goodbye now
After so many years only knowing how to love one soul
How can I stop these tears that fall from my eyes with such ease
How do I warm the insides of my heart from being so cold?
Tell me anyone how to face the dark days that lie ahead
Tell me how to scare these demons that haunt my world
It's like I'm attending the funeral of a perfect love
It's like watching a movie on repeat as we unfurl.
Tell me how do we begin working past all the hurt that's present
Tell me anyone, there's a chance to again make things right
It's too much of a burden to carry knowing it's over forever
When for more years than I'm able to count, he's been my light.
Tell me anyone at all that there was a time he really could have loved me
Tell me anyone please, that's some point in this life it was real
Let me have some kind of reassurance I wasn't just a total fool
Tell me that I was awake and not just dreaming about all my heart feels.
