When you said it was over
I felt like a withered flower
When I saw you moving away
I felt like an already spent day
When you refused to return
I felt just like my heart got torn
You have turned me to a fallen star
Now that you have gone
I have lost my light
My shine has been dimmed
I will stop missing you.
There is no love like what you took away
That was the reason I had to stay
Everything I ever wanted to possess
You should know I possess to obsess
No amount of comfort can assuage this pain
It can never be washed by the rain
Tell me how to survive
I doubt I will never know
Since you have gone
The day will not break again
This I know
The sun will not shine forever
This is my belief
I will not stop missing you
Since you have gone
