I remember the times
We used to stay up all night
Not a care in the world
The future looked so bright
Growing older's not an easy thing to do
But I'd be alright
Because I'd do it with you
But how could I know
About the secrets you keep
Hiding all that darkness
In your heart so deep
If you gave me a chance
I would've held your hand
We could face it together
I would understand
Sometimes life's not what we expect to be
But you didn't have to give it up and leave
If you gave me time
I could have known
I'd have stood by your side
We would have held our own
I'd have stood by your side
You didn't have to go
Now that you've said goodbye
I have to stand alone
As I pick up the pieces
Of my broken life
I can't fit them together
I can't make it right
All my memories are fading to the past
But I can't let go
And face the aftermath
And though I've tried
To shed the blame
It doesn't matter if I feel the pain
And as my walls
Come crumbling down
It's hard to rebuild
When you're not around
Sometimes life's not what we expect to be
But you didn't have to give it up and leave
If you gave me time
I could have known
I'd have stood by your side
We would have held our own
I'd have stood by your side
You didn't have to go
Now that you've said goodbye
I have to stand alone
