[ Featuring Jonell Mosser ]
I know you're happy, when I'm away
In the illusion that you're free
I know my love, just how you feel
'Cause it's the same way for me
The trust is gone and we can't talk
Despite the countless times I've prayed
Now the pain of leaving
Is less than
If I stayed
There were once, so many good times
They overwhelmed the bad
But somewhere, somehow the balance changed
Into tears over what we had
The smile's gone, into a frown
And I've got nothing left to trade
Now the pain of leaving is less than
If I stayed
Who knows, where love goes
Can you name the time, or the place?
And I would swear
That I don't care
But then why are these tears
Upon my face?
In the heartache, I see a ghost
Another life too late to save
And so I write this, for the love that once lived
Like putting flowers on a grave
You look like someone I used to know
Who shared a promise we betrayed
Once the pain of leaving
Was less than
If I stayed
