4 Years too late (broken heart)

[Intro] Yeah... Four years gone... Thought I'd come back to us... Guess I came back to memories. [Verse 1] Left town young, had dreams in my eyes, Promised we'd make it, no matter the miles. Late-night calls and pictures on my screen, You were my forever, or so it seemed. Four years passed, I was counting the days, Thinking about you in a thousand ways. Kept your name close when I felt alone, Believing your heart was still my home. [Pre-Chorus] But time changes people and feelings fade, And some promises don't survive the pain. I came back hoping we'd pick up where we left, Didn't know I'd be meeting someone else instead. [Chorus] And it broke my heart when I saw the truth, You were holding him the way you used to. While I spent four years believing in us, You were giving somebody else your love. Guess I was loving a memory, Holding on to what we'd never be. Now I'm learning how to let you go, Even if it hurts more than you'll ever know. [Verse 2] I ain't angry, just disappointed inside, 'Cause I would've crossed oceans just to make things right. But you chose silence, you chose somebody new, And I had to hear it instead of hearing it from you. Now your pictures don't hit me the same, And I don't say your name when it rains. The girl I loved only lives in my mind, 'Cause the girl I came back for, I didn't find. [Bridge] Maybe I loved who you used to be, Maybe you loved who I used to be. And maybe we both changed while time moved on, Trying to hold on to something already gone. [Final Chorus] You broke my heart, but you won't break me, I'll heal these scars eventually. And one day I'll thank the pain you gave, For showing me love shouldn't feel this way. Yeah... Four years too late... But I'm finally walking away.
