Why Didn't You Stay
Far from the sea
I'm trying to set myself free
Tears flowing like a river
I have no idea when will it be over
You left in March, now it's almost May
Still, I'm asking myself why didn't you stay?
I can feel the heaviness in me like rain
My heart is clearly in vain
Nights felt so empty, I always cry
The ghost of our past is haunting me, I feel like I'm gonna die
Moving forward feels like walking on a broken glass
Grief is a thing I have no Idea how to surpass
I could no longer see the clear blue sky
I don't know how to rise, but I still try
Always looking back to our yesterday, it was so bright
Oh, darling! When will I be able to see the light?
