Except Staying Far Apart
Except Staying Far Apart
The sound of your weeping Still stabs my heart Cause I know I can't do anything Except staying far apart
Once upon a time, I swore That once you collapse on me, I'll never let you fall again But it's time to set you free
Believe me, I wish more than anything That I could leave this world and die But my guilt doesn't let me be Remembering your sobs and cries
If only I could tell you the truth Whatever I do, it's just for you My soul crumbles seeing you so broken I really don't deserve you
One day, when my time comes, I wish to see you smile at last. Until then I can't do anything Except staying far apart...
