You won’t stop me
I’m drifting to the other shore
I don’t see us there
I lost that picture
You’re here, but you’re not
You linger like a shadow
I see you every day
Yet I still miss you

Is this the end of our story?
Was it just a dream?
I understand now, and it hurts
That it had to be this way
Your eyes say so much
More than even you know
That night, I saw it clearly
That it had to be this way

Clearly, it had to be this way
We’ve been falling for so long
Let’s not look back
It had to be this way
Nothing can stop it
And I don’t even want to anymore

You won’t stop me
You faded when you lost your aim
I feel so sorry for us
You got lost in a dream
I take a breath before the jump
You stay behind, because you choose to
I feel so sorry for us
I lost that picture

Is this the end of our story?
Was it just a dream?
I understand now, and it hurts
That it had to be this way
Your eyes say so much
More than even you know
That night, I saw it clearly
That it had to be this way

Clearly, it had to be this way
We’ve been falling for so long
Let’s not look back
It had to be this way
Nothing can stop it
And I don’t even want to anymore

Clearly, it had to be this way
We’ve been falling for so long
Let’s not look back
It had to be this way
Nothing can stop it
And I don’t even want to
I don’t want to

The stairs are too steep
I don’t want you climbing them
The stairs are too steep
I don’t want you, I don’t want you
The stairs are too steep
I don’t want you climbing them
The stairs are too steep
