I asked you to stay,
But you walked away.
I cried for you and asked you why.
You said I knew.
I guess you knew.
How could I let go,
Could ever know?
So I held you back and asked myself,
'Could this be true?'
It was nothing but true.
On a snowy day last winter
Your words fell like a blizzard.
I'd laid myself for your shelter,
But yours shards cut me apart.
I wish I felt what I feel now back then.
'Cause now
That the sweet breeze against my face
Wakes another day,
I at last have enough of breath
Left in me to say,
“I’m gratified.”
It was a trial,
And it took awhile
To breathe without a part of me,
The part called you.
But I made it through.
On a snowy day last winter,
Your words fell like a blizzard.
But they passed me by with the weather,
And now I start to pick up my heart.
I wish I felt what I feel now back then
When I had thought the world would come to an end.
‘Cause now
That the sweet breeze against my face
Wakes another day,
I at last have enough of breath
Left in me to say,
'That though
The snow lasted forever,
When you decided to end us,
I cried and cried, I remember,
Only because I truly loved you.'
I wish I felt what I feel now back then.
‘Cause now
That the sweet breeze against my face
Wakes another day,
I at last have enough of breath
Left in me to say,
“I’m gratified.”
