Lyrics
From Afar
I woke up this morning Tears fell like rain
I rolled over once My sheets were empty again
I looked out my window The sun was shining bright
I didn't need to know If you were alright
CHORUS:
I didn't want to leave you But I didn't want to stay
I traveled far to see you But I knew I'd come home one day
I didn't want to need you or cherish who you are
I didn't want to love you From Afar
I moved on I moved out was on my way
I found another way ( place) to take my mind away
Times I remember Some good Some bad
I hold them deep in my heart But thats the past
CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
I can't go back I won't go back at all
Whats meant to be is meant to be
I can't go back I miss you so
I just had to let it go
CHORUS:
