Alone

[Intro] (Ooh… ooh…) Yeah… Mmm… Funny how silence got a voice now… [Verse 1] I thought freedom would feel like sunlight Thought I’d find myself in the moonlight Packed your love in a box and walked away Swore I’d be okay Had my reasons, had my pride Didn’t know what I’d leave behind Now your side of the bed stays cold And every night feels longer than before [Pre-Chorus] I wanted space, I wanted room to breathe Didn’t know I’d be missing you and me Now these walls keep echoing your name And nothing really feels the same [Chorus] All ‘cause I let you go All to be on my own How I wish I’d known How it’d feel to be alone All ‘cause I let you go All to be on my own How I wish I’d known How it’d feel to be alone [Verse 2] Everybody says that time will heal But time just made your absence real Every little thing reminds me of us Now I’m sitting here with all these what-ifs Used to think I needed nobody Now I know that’s just the old me talking You were home when the world got cold Didn’t know your love was gold [Pre-Chorus] I wanted space, I wanted room to grow Didn’t think I’d lose my way alone Now every road keeps leading back to you But you’re gone and there’s nothing I can do [Chorus] All ‘cause I let you go All to be on my own How I wish I’d known How it’d feel to be alone All ‘cause I let you go All to be on my own How I wish I’d known How it’d feel to be alone [Bridge] Late nights, staring at the ceiling Replay every conversation, every feeling If I could turn back time, maybe I’d stay Maybe love would’ve found another way But lessons don’t come cheap Some regrets don’t let you sleep And now I finally understand What I had in my hands [Breakdown] All ’cause I let you go… (Ooh, I let you go…) All to be on my own… (Thought that’s what I wanted…) How I wish I’d known… (Known, known…) How it’d feel to be alone… [Outro] All ‘cause I let you go All to be on my own How I wish I’d known How it’d feel to be alone Now the silence sings your song And I hear it all night long All ‘cause I let you go… Now I’m learning what alone feels like… (Ooh… ooh… fade out)
