And I feel like I knew you before
And I guess that you can hear me through this song
And my love will never die
And my feelings will always shine
(x2)
And I know that you just wanted me to belong to someone
And I guess that now I'll just be moving on to someone
And my love will never die
And my feelings will always shine
(x2)
I never betrayed your trust
I never betrayed your faith
I'll never forsake your heart
I'll never forget your face
There's a feeling that I can't describe
There's a reason that I cannot hide
I've never seen a light that's so bright
The light that shine behind your eyes
I never betrayed your trust
I never betrayed your faith
I'll never forsake your heart
I'll never forget your face
There's a feeling that I can't describe,
a reason that I cannot hide
I've never seen a light that's so bright
The light that shines behind your eyes
I can see
this life and what you mean to me
And when I dreamed,
I dreamed of you
Then I wake
Tell me what can I do?
I had to let you go to the setting sun
I had to let you go and find a way back home
(x2)

I like that this song remains vague, because when push comes to shove, it is merely the best representation of the pain of letting somebody go. Somebody, a lover likely, who you know your time has ended with. Maybe she betrayed, maybe things just weren't working out, or maybe he knows he has to move on for whatever reason, but... god, he loved her. He still loves her. But he has to let her go. And this song is the best attempt I've ever heard at converting that pain into sound.
