Lyrics
So he?s gone?
He won?t have to hear me crying anymore
And I won?t hear the endless lying
He shut the door
But when I close my eyes I still feel his breath
And sense his body next to mine
Holding me in the mornings
But that was before he?s not here anymore
Nothing lasts forever? nothing stays the same
People go? People change
Not long to wait before another day
Creeps through those windowpanes?
And life begins again
But you mustn?t cry
I know that you can be strong
Shine your light into the shadows
Anticipate the sun
And find the happiness that rushes in
When the night has gone
And know the morning always comes
So I guess he?s gone?
I can throw away the scrap of paper
That he first wrote his number on
Just a sentimental waste of wallet space
That?s been here for too long
Time to move on...
Deep inside your heat, you knew
That things weren?t right from the start
It always had to end
If you can fall in love then you?ll fall in love again
And this broken heart will mend
So you must be brave and learn to be strong
And search for the place where your heart belongs
It isn?t up here in the shadows
And you don?t want to miss it when it?s gone
So look to the horizon
Time to start searching for the sun
?Cus time won?t stop?
The morning always comes
So he?s gone? Start setting fire to your shadows
And burning like the sun?
But the dark skies have not yet gone
And the dawn has not yet come
Perhaps the battle?s just begun
The morning always comes
Maybe he got caught up in the snow? maybe
The morning always comes
Daylight will soon be streaming
Through the windowpanes
And you can start your life again
