Saw you singing your song the other day
It's been a long time since your eyes lit up that way
I felt the guilt build up as I looked back how things went wrong
Did I have to sweep in and scar you?
Five years we shared the bittersweetness of our youth
Then we broke up because sometimes it is the best thing to do
Did it ever cross your mind that maybe you hurt me too?
But I'm not taking it against you
Since the beginning
I never wanted anything
But to see you reach your dreams
I knew that you just wanted me
But I had drеams of my own
And I just couldn't let them go
So I apologize for coming into your lifе
Just to break your heart to pieces and then leave you in the night
And I tried my best to stay by your side
But who knew the rolling seasons would reveal that sometimes
We aren't meant to be the one?
So goodbye to the ones we once loved
When things got heavy and you expected more from me
I tried to be there to take away your tears
But I didn't notice that I was chipping away
At pieces of myself till there was nothing left to give
I didn't even want to live
But I apologize for coming into your life
Just to break your heart to pieces and then leave you in the night
I tried my best to stay by your side
But who knew the rolling seasons would reveal that sometimes
We aren't meant to be the one?
So goodbye to the ones we once loved
I realized it wasn't anyone's fault at all
It's just that I wasn't built to build you up when you fall
Maybe we were meant to be a lesson to each other
But I wish you well
And I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
Oh, I apologize for coming into your life
Just to break your heart to pieces and then leave you in the night
I tried my best to stay by your side
But who knew the rolling seasons would reveal that sometimes
We aren't meant to be the one?
So goodbye to the one
I wasn't meant to be the one
So goodbye to the one I once loved
