Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
"I hate being right," he muttered low,
Watching the station fade and go.
A crumpled page clenched in his hand,
His heart, his soul, his life it spanned.
That piece of paper held it all,
Years of eras, rise and fall.
He thought, "Just toss it, let it fly—
Maybe that will erase goodbye."
(Pre-Chorus)
Out the window, the wind would take,
The weight, the pain, the love, the ache.
“Open your hand, release it now,
Take the leap, just figure out how."
(Chorus)
But the paper burned like fire inside,
A story untold, a truth denied.
He kissed the page, he held it near,
Her voice, her laugh, her touch so clear.
The choice to let it go or stay,
Was tearing him apart that day.
Oh, love’s a battle you can’t outpace,
When memories linger in empty space.
(Verse 2)
She was the sword, the shield, the throne,
The castle, the dragon, the world he'd known.
She took the boy, the god, the man,
And left him shattered, without a plan.
Her laughter rang like a haunting song,
The kind you miss once it’s gone.
He felt the pull, the ache, the fight,
To keep her close or free the night.
(Pre-Chorus)
“Open your hand, just let it fall,
Erase her name, erase it all.”
But his heart screamed loud, “Don’t let her go,
She’s everything you’ll ever know.”
(Chorus)
But the paper burned like fire inside,
A story untold, a truth denied.
He kissed the page, he held it near,
Her voice, her laugh, her touch so clear.
The choice to let it go or stay,
Was tearing him apart that day.
Oh, love’s a battle you can’t outpace,
When memories linger in empty space.
(Bridge)
The wind howled loud as the train sped by,
The station a speck beneath the sky.
His hand stretched out, the paper shook,
One last time, one final look.
"Don’t take her yet," his heart implored,
But reason screamed, “You can’t love anymore!”
He clenched his teeth, he closed his eyes,
And let her fly to the endless skies.
(Chorus)
And the paper burned as it soared away,
A piece of his soul that begged to stay.
Her laughter faded with the breeze,
But love's not something time can seize.
The choice to let her go was made,
But in his heart, her shadow stayed.
Oh, love’s a battle you can’t erase,
Even when it’s lost in time and space.
(Outro)
The train rolled on, his hand now bare,
The station gone, the cold night air.
A silent tear fell from his face,
As her memory lingered, a ghostly trace.
"I had to let you go," he said,
"But you'll live forever inside my head."
