A song about knowing you have to let go of something (someone) but not being able to figure out how yet.

Lyrics below the cut!

Hey, there, it's me

I hope you've been doing alright

How are your parents? Your sister? Your cats, and the weather?

Yeah, me too, I'm doing just fine

Just wanted to call you, to see how you're doing

To tell you I read all your books

I promised myself I'd stop calling

I know how desperate this looks

Hey, there, it's me

Sorry to call you again

I wanted to ask if you had a new girlfriend

Should I admit this is the end?

I've got to be honest, I'm not doing great

I dreamt of you again last night

You were there in my kitchen, making fun of my baking

We danced in the flickering light

The chances you hear this are zero, but those are still odds I would take

Watching you leave was a nightmare, but I still don't want to wake

You've given me so much but I still - I take, and I take, and I wait

Thinking of you is a habit I am trying to break

Thinking of you is a habit I am trying to break

Thinking of you is a habit I am unable to break

THE LAST ONE!! The last song from this collection!! I thought it was going to take me forever but I've gotten better at this and it wasn't that bad, especially because I didn't want to do anything fancy with this. It feels like I've been working on this project forever--- it's been over three years--- and I'm so happy to be done. I'm ready to start working on the songs that I've written more recently, that are more relevant to my life now, and that I can play at open mic nights.

Lyrics below the cut :)

She used to share my bed, now I’m sleeping on my own

I thought that I’d forgotten how to smile when alone

Eight months later, I’ve remembered no one is a home

I was never made of stone

She isn’t still my lover but I still call her a friend

And we made no empty promises to never love again  

Sometimes a bond needs space to bend

Not every ending is the end

I would’ve given anything to have her by my side

When she left I thought I’d failed before I’d had the chance to try

I thought it was forever when she finally said goodbye 

But changes don't mean that it died

 

She isn’t still my lover but I still call her a friend

And we made no empty promises to never love again

Sometimes a bond needs space to bend 

Not every ending is the end

Finally I'm moving on

Leaving doesn't mean I'm gone

Erased lines can be redrawn

Setting suns bring a new dawn

She isn’t still my lover but I still call her a friend

And we made no empty promises to never love again

Sometimes a bond unbroken needs space to bend 

Not every ending is the end

Not every ending is the end
