Whether, I - C'est la vie lyrics

If we could turn back the clocks And just do this right Instead of building foundation on a lie That kept us hidden, that kept us safe Brought down the walls and took you away I would have given everything to watch you grow Into the person that you never thought you could be But let's not dwell on the things we'll never know Fight through the tears so your eyes can see We both know that we've reached the end of this road You may think that this is easy for me But I'll have you know I fight myself night and day to push you out Hours creep by as I struggle through my doubt Just let her go Did you honestly believe That I would just walk away? Without hoping you would run back to me All our thoughts have been said But I still feel you in my head This ghost is eating me alive And I know this is right but it feels so wrong But it feels so wrong Letting go of what we've waited for so long I can't pretend that I don't know the truth That I don't know the truth This choice we've made is what's best for you If life was perfect then there'd be no uncertainty But insecurity is what makes you feel alive What is the answer? Did you honestly believe That I would just walk away? Without hoping you would run back to me Did you honestly believe That I would just walk away? Without hoping you would run back to me All our thoughts have been said But I still feel you in my head This ghost is eating me alive And I will always hold you close But only in my heart As far as you know We're oceans apart I swear there's nothing more for me here (I swear that I won't look back) I'll move on, I will grow I swear there's nothing more for me here (I swear that I won't look back) (and I know this is right but it feels so wrong) I'll move on, I will grow (letting go of what we've waited for so long)
