Lyrics
They say the sky is darkest just before you reach the dawn
That's just about the time you'll realize that I am gone
Now I've made up my mind
Heartache's not far behind
I've never said these words before
I just don't love you anymore
I guess I always thought you and I would be together
Through the years we grew apart and then we lost forever
Now I've made up my mind
Heartache's not far behind
I've never said these words before
I just don't love you anymore
You will find another love but I don't see that for me
I have to clean my head and I must know that I am free
Deep inside I know
It's hard to let go
I've never said these words before
I just don't love you anymore
I've never liked long goodbyes and I won't go there now
Maybe it's best this way and we can turn the page somehow
Now I've made up my mind
Heartache's not far behind
I've never said these words before
I just don't love you anymore
