lyrics
[Verse]
I crossed a thousand miles of loneliness
Leaving everything behind to start again
Searching for a new dawn
And in that lake where you always go
Where the water reflects your solitude
I never imagined I would fall
[Pre-Chorus]
I gave you roses under the rain
Held your soul when it was dark
Tried to heal every hurt
But the shadows were stronger
[Chorus]
I could have been your shelter in the storm
Given you warmth when you felt dead
But you keep fighting ghosts you can’t see
Running from the love that tried to protect you
Now I understand love isn’t enough
When someone is broken inside, they can’t heal
[Verse]
Each evening we returned to the lake
Bare feet on the grass
Dancing to silence in the sunset light
Spinning and laughing under the sky
As if the world belonged to us
As if there were no yesterdays
[Pre-Chorus]
But when our dance stopped
Your eyes looked far away
And though I held you in my arms
Your mind wandered to the past
[Verse]
I wrote verses by the water
While the moon watched over us
I did all that love asked of me
But in your eyes, I saw that distance
Lost in memories of other days
Someone else still lived within you
[Bridge]
In that lake where we danced
Where we dreamed so many times
Where I held you in my arms
Now only broken dreams remain
[Final Chorus]
I could have been your shelter in the storm
Given you warmth when you felt dead
But you keep fighting ghosts you can’t see
Running from the love that tried to protect you
So I pack up these broken dreams
Carrying memories; it’s over now
Sometimes love means letting go
Even when the pain makes us suffer
[Outro]
And now I’m returning to my land once more
Where my story first began
Crossing the same thousand miles
But with a different heart
I carry with me these memories
Of when we danced by the water
Of when I thought love was enough
To heal a broken heart
[Coda]
I hope that one day you’ll heal
And find peace along your way
While I return to my roots
With a thousand stories and a fate
That taught me sometimes love
Isn’t enough if it’s not the right time
I crossed a thousand miles of loneliness
Leaving everything behind to start again
Searching for a new dawn
And in that lake where you always go
Where the water reflects your solitude
I never imagined I would fall
[Pre-Chorus]
I gave you roses under the rain
Held your soul when it was dark
Tried to heal every hurt
But the shadows were stronger
[Chorus]
I could have been your shelter in the storm
Given you warmth when you felt dead
But you keep fighting ghosts you can’t see
Running from the love that tried to protect you
Now I understand love isn’t enough
When someone is broken inside, they can’t heal
[Verse]
Each evening we returned to the lake
Bare feet on the grass
Dancing to silence in the sunset light
Spinning and laughing under the sky
As if the world belonged to us
As if there were no yesterdays
[Pre-Chorus]
But when our dance stopped
Your eyes looked far away
And though I held you in my arms
Your mind wandered to the past
[Verse]
I wrote verses by the water
While the moon watched over us
I did all that love asked of me
But in your eyes, I saw that distance
Lost in memories of other days
Someone else still lived within you
[Bridge]
In that lake where we danced
Where we dreamed so many times
Where I held you in my arms
Now only broken dreams remain
[Final Chorus]
I could have been your shelter in the storm
Given you warmth when you felt dead
But you keep fighting ghosts you can’t see
Running from the love that tried to protect you
So I pack up these broken dreams
Carrying memories; it’s over now
Sometimes love means letting go
Even when the pain makes us suffer
[Outro]
And now I’m returning to my land once more
Where my story first began
Crossing the same thousand miles
But with a different heart
I carry with me these memories
Of when we danced by the water
Of when I thought love was enough
To heal a broken heart
[Coda]
I hope that one day you’ll heal
And find peace along your way
While I return to my roots
With a thousand stories and a fate
That taught me sometimes love
Isn’t enough if it’s not the right time
