My Reluctant Goodbye

(album: On The Other Side Of Here - 2021)

To tell you the truth
I had such high hopes for us
I put you on a pedestal
And when you tumbled off
I felt abandoned again

Looking back, I have to say
The fault was mine entirely
I made you largest than life
It took too long for me to see
You were only human

Why do I always make the same mistakes?
Falling for someone out of reach, my heart always breaks
I can't risk it all this time instead
Here's my reluctant goodbye

The sun on your face
Captures your mood perfectly
So sad and bittersweet
But something's incomplete
Wish I could take away your pain

Tired of spending my life
With people who run away from love
I always end up alone
My heart turned into stone
It's time I made a change

Why do I always make the same mistakes?
Falling for someone out of reach, my heart always breaks
I can't risk it all this time instead
Here's my reluctant goodbye

To tell you the truth
I had such high hopes for us
