I Can See That You'Ve Moved On

I can see that you've moved on I see you, across the crowded room, but your eyes are fixed on him My life now is filled with only gloom, I guess it ends, before it begins I see how he makes you laugh, right out loud when he tells a corny joke There's no reason to be here right now, since our lives went up in smoke Pre chorus I think...about all...you needed to hear... but i never paid attention... I understand... it all now...so, loud and clear... all I see is my own reflection Chorus I should have said, how much I love you, with all my heart and soul I should have said how much I needed you, that you've taken full control There's so many things, I can say... now that you are gone... but there's no use in saying it... cos, I can see that you've moved on yeah, I can see that you've moved on I can see the way you look at him, the way you used to look at me All my friends tell me, I'm looking thin, I tell them to just let me be I feel like my life, is coming to it's end, my breathing's kind of shallow How to go on without my best friend, the only friend I've got is my shadow Chorus I should have said, how much I love you, with all my heart and soul I should have said how much I needed you, that you've taken full control There's so many things, I can say... now that you're gone... but there's no use in saying it now... cos, I can see that you've moved on yeah, I can see that you've moved on cos, I can see that you've moved on yeah, I can see that you've moved on repeat and fade John Derek Hamilton September 14,2019

this one touches John, maybe because we have all been there, sometimes it's hard to see an ex lover enjoying life when we still are missing them, we were left with the sting before the burn, this one brings that sting forth... wonderful but poignant lyrics :) hugs

Aha I wrote one similar to this one!;) but it's not on here now it was on my old account! Such sweet sorrow when another moves on and seems we are not! Again the sadness you wrote about very well! Although I know it does not pertain to you it is just a write but still I could feel this and have a few times!;) see if a person can feel your words you did a great job And I know several can!
