It's not about success; it's about significance.

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.


Verse One:
Forever seems like a long time until it comes to an end
I may have dreamed you’d always be mine, but I’m losing you instead
Baby, I still think all about you
When there is no one around to
Hold me tight just like you used to do

Chorus:
I don’t know where the love went
But I still got the moments that
I swear I’m always gonna hold close, yeah
I wanted you to know that
And now that you’re gone
It’s time for me to stop holding on
I’m not gonna like it, but I still gotta try
But I, I can’t let you go
Why does this hurt me so?
‘Cause right now all that I can see
That is left of you and me
Is nothing but a fading memory

Verse Two:
I was so blinded by doubt; I said love is a farce
But I can see that I was wrong now, because you captured my heart
And my knees still go weak whenever you’re near
But now I’m drowning in all of my tears
‘Cause I know that I don’t have you with me here
To kiss me goodnight just like you used to do

Chorus:
I don’t know where the love went
But I still got the moments that
I swear I’m always gonna hold close, yeah
I wanted you to know that
And now that you’re gone
It’s time for me to stop holding on
I’m not gonna like it, but I still gotta try
Oh, but I, I can’t let you go
Why does this hurt me so?
‘Cause right now all that I can see
That is left of you and me
Is nothing but a fading memory

Bridge:
So I’ll keep all the good times and the bad you forgot, you forgot
And tonight I’ll be counting all the things you’re not, you’re not
So, with one last kiss, baby tell me this so I can learn to accept it
In the end was I just not worth it? Or did I do something to deserve it?
Maybe I deserved it

Chorus:
I don’t know where the love went
But I still got the moments that
I swear I’m always gonna hold close, yeah
And I hope you know that
So now that you’re gone
It’s time for me to stop holding on
I’m not gonna like it, but I still gotta try
So I, I’m letting you go
And I’m already missing you so
But I’m never breaking, baby
Just so long as I can see
The beautiful fading memory

Forever seems like a long time until it comes to an end
I may have dreamed you’d always be mine, but I’m losing you instead

I was in geometry class last month and the lyrics for this just came to me out of nowhere. This is my third song, and it's about the second time I got my heart broken, which was about 10 months ago.

The best things in life are unseen, that's why you close your eyes when you kiss, cry, or dream.
What doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger.

This is really good...:)
