We're Better Off This Way

The past, is the past
And I have learned not to regret it,
When I told you that I loved you
The words were true, I really meant it
But this morning, I woke up late
And told myself it'll be, okay
Tears still appear to stain my face,
But I know it's better this way

Every moment with you
Are picture perfect in my memories,
I don't look up at the night anymore
And wonder if you think of, me
I don't think about your kiss that I used to crave,
I don't want to know about your pain,
I watch as the clouds roll in gray,
And deep inside, I know it's better this way

Even with you in front of me,
It's clear, the scars still remain
It's no one's fault, there's no one to blame,
But the both of us keep holding the shame
You grab my hand, and rub it gently
And continue to beg me to stay,
But I have to leave you alone today,
Because it's better for my heart if I just, walk away

I wanted to save our love
The same as you wanted to,
But my heart couldn't handle it anymore
I promise, though, I still love you
You grab me and you kiss me
And you plead me to stay,
But this time, I have to be strong
We have to go our separate ways,

Because it's better for my heart if I just walk away
