You left when the light began to fade
When all that surrounds you turns to grey
We watched you walk away
We watched you walk away

And now I'm standing here falling apart
You let go of what you helped to start
And now I tell myself not to let it show
But oh it's hard to watch you go

Everybody knew that it had to end
When the fire died out
and you couldn't pretend
And now I tell myself not to let it show
But oh it's hard to watch you go

You left as the final notes were played
When all that you feel gets in the way
The songs all sound the same
We watched you walk away

And now I'm standing here falling apart
You let go of what you helped to start
And now I tell myself not to let it show
But oh it's hard to watch you go

Everybody knew that it had to end
When the fire died out
and you couldn't pretend
And now I tell myself not to let it show
But oh it's hard to watch you go

And now I'm standing here falling apart
You let go of what you helped to start
And now I tell myself not to let it show
But oh it's hard to watch you go

Everybody knew that it had to end
When the fire died out
and you couldn't pretend
And now I tell myself
not to let it show
But oh it's hard to watch you go
It's hard to watch you go
It's hard to watch you go
It's hard to watch you go
It's hard to watch you go
