i just thought i'd let you know
that i'm not okay tonight
i'm not going to lie and tell you
that everything's going to be all right
i've felt this way before
i just didn't think it'd be so soon
that i'd fall from my peek of happiness
into this period of gloom
i wonder how you're feeling
on this cold winters night
the sky is partly cloudy
but the stars are shinning bright
and i wonder - while you're walking
if you'll look up at the sky
and remember how i'd stare, always
at the clouds passing me by
your voice is slowly fading
though still echoes in my mind
i never could forget you
though my only hope is time
i wish you could be here right now
to brush my hair away
to kiss away these tears that form in my eyes
and tell me it's gonna be okay
but i'm not okay tonight
and surely, you don't know
that you're the reason why i'm crying
'cause i just can't let you fucking go
i wish that i could make it clear
how much i have for you in my heart
and i wish i could give you every tear i've cried
since the day we fell apart
i want you to know i miss you
and that's a lot to say
i wish i could call you to tell you i love you
but today's just not my day
to dial your number would be pointless
for your love for me is through
i mourn the death of a love that was born
