Move on...I've tried
Alone with the silent tears I've cried
Then are the tears that just will no longer fall
Feel like I'm beating my head repeatedly up against the wall
Yes, I still have our moments, our memories and no one can take them away
But that don't give me you being here with me today
You realize you never moved on completely, and some like me had never really budged, 
when suddenly you remember all those little things you had once forgot
So many small things that remind me constantly of you, there are a lot
I've attempted to save those times in my heart and soul, and thought I was content with 
leaving them lie in the past
It didn't work after all, and now it's time to make our love known, just look at how, after all 
these years, it's last
How I would love to again be wrapped in your arms, looking deep into your eyes, and 
stealing another kiss
But mostly it's the dreaming with you I extremely miss
Inside of me there is, for you, a burning fire
A deep endless eternal desire that keeps taking me higher and higher
It burns so intense not even the tears from which I sometimes drown
Can come close to putting it out, or dimming it down
I'm reading between the lines, should have always been cause that's what I hold onto now 
that I'm older
Even if without you here my life keeps growing colder
I've got no where at all left to hide
I think that love has let it be known and telling me that it's finally found me
Because I so very much need you by my side
Together our hearts and souls can forever be free
Alone yeah there are still silent tears I cry
But letting you go, I've tried
My heart, soul, and mind
Tell me when I attempt this now I'm doing myself some kind of crime
Sure, sometimes there are tears that will no longer fall
Yet, I'm still in love with you through it all
Move on
Well I've done it for awhile but you've never really, from my life, gone
Because here in this moment for me
I'm stuck here in time
Inside my mind
With your memory
