If only we could freeze time
Rewind the hands to the night
I fell in love with you
But for now I’ve paused time in my mind
Rather than face the saddened emotions
running through my soul,
impacting my bones
I took a one-way ticket to love,
and it’s time I moved on
I’ll pick a day, eventually
To leave a piece of my heart behind,
to stare out a window,
to smile and cry over you
The day I do,
I’ll accept myself for loving you
and letting you go,
I’ll get the one-way ticket home and release the time in my mind
