A love from afar

[Verse 1] I wake up to your message on my phone, Miles apart, but your words feel like home, We've been trying, girl, we've been so strong, But deep down, I know distance is too long. [Pre-Chorus] And vvery night I lie awake, Dreaming of a love that we couldn't make, And it's tearing me apart inside, 'Cause I know I've got to say goodbye. (Chorus) though it hurts me a lot, I'm letting you go, Love across the distance, it's a heavy load, I'm setting you free, though it breaks my heart, 'Cause u deserve a chance to find a brand new start. A new start... [Verse 2] We've shared laughter, we've shared tears, But this love is fading with the years, The time zones, the calls that don't ring, It's a battle, girl, that we just can't win. [Pre-Chorus] Every night that I lie awake, I already know I've got to say goodbye. [Chorus] though it hurts me a lot, I'm letting you go, Love across the distance, it's a heavy load, I'm setting you free, though it breaks my heart, 'Cause u deserve a chance to find a brand new start. A new start... [Bridge] It's not your fault, it's not mine too, Just a love that couldn't pull through, We'll find our peace in separate ways, But I'll wish u the best the rest of my days.... `[Verse 4] The calls and texts, they meant the world, But they can't replace a touch or a word, The video calls, the dreams we planned, Are slipping through like grains of sand.... [Pre-Chorus] Every night that I lie awake, I already know I've got to say goodbye. [Chorus] though it hurts me a lot, I'm letting you go, Love across the distance, it's a heavy load, I'm setting you free, though it breaks my heart, 'Cause u deserve a chance to find a brand new start. A new start... [Outro] So this is goodbye, my love, my friend, I hope you find your happiness again, Though we're parting ways, know you always meant, The world to me, but this is the end, the end...
