Let me wipe those silent tears,
Even long after you've cried.
Let me take away your fears,
And let me comfort you when you're tired.

Let me sing you a song,
For this is all I know.
Let me hold you this long,
For sooner or later my love will show.

But you can only stay a while,
So now let me learn to heal.
Let me fake my bitter smile,
'Cause you don't know the sorrow I feel.

Allow me to find my distance,
And let me cry in silence.
Allow me to hurt this one instance,
'Cause I've never felt pain ever since.

They say that time would cure me,
They say that it will be over soon.
Now I would probably need a century,
To mourn for my love under the moon.

The pain you left was so hefty,
But one day I will come through.
I will take these lessons with me,
To find a love other than you.

Maybe one day I would stumble on another,
Who would let me forget my past.
Maybe he would let me believe in forever,
Maybe he would give me a love that would last.

But for now let me walk alone,
Let me find my own speed.
Let me burn the bridges back home,
Let me have the space that I need.
