Leaving unseen love

Know your name in quiet rooms Like a still knows what I assume I don't reach out, I don't pretend That I still trace where we could end Go on and love the one you found The one I never could become I watched it all from further down Like I was never the only one Go on and love the one you found The one I never could become I watched it all from further down Like I was never the only one I kept your shadow in my mind Long after we ran out of time You never knew the wars I'd hide Behind a smile, behind my eyes Some people stay, some fade away Some words arrive too late to say I guess my heart was just a place You passed through on your way Go on and love the one you found The one I never could become I watched it all from further down Like I was never the only one Go on and love the one you found The one I never could become I finally learned to turn around And leave the things that can't be won Maybe in another life I'd be enough to make you stay But this one taught me how to lose And still walk away Go on and love the one you found The one I never could become I watched it all from further down Like I was never the only one Go on and love the one you found The one I never could become Now your memory's just a sound Fading with the setting sun
