I finally had to leave you
It was all too much to handle
Felt like I was fading
Burning out just like a candle
What we needed
Was not where we were heading
None of us could get along with pretending
Even though now I embrace another
Deep inside you still take over

How could I ever forget you
Won't forget you, ever
How could I ever forget you
Won't forget you, never

So maybe now thoughts of me
Make you wish you never thought them
And if I took all the blame
Would this wandering be over
But I'm sure you know how much I owe you
Taught me how to live my life
The way I want to
Even though now I embrance another
Deep inside you still take over
