How i tried to let you go

I try to find some peace of mind
Your leaving left it hard for me to find
Every day seems longer than the last
And the nights can never pass me by too fast
I'm longing for the day
When I can finally say
That I'm over you

I close my eyes and you are always there
I seem to be reminded of you everywhere
I'm caught inside the feeling that was you
A captive of the solitude that came when we were through

I struggle hard to find
The only peace of mind
Of being over you

I've tried holding on
I've tried to lose the glow
You will never know
How I've tried to let you go

Faded photographs of what was love
They show the way it once was,
Now it's all I'm thinking of
I see my own reflection in that picture of before
I see the image slowly fade, but still I long for more

I struggle for the day
When I can finally say
That I'm over you

I've tried holding on
I've tried to lose the glow
You will never know
How I've tried to let you go

Now, looking back on the coarse of my life
It all flashes before me, right in front of my eyes
I always thought I would find my way home
But I'm helpless without you
I'm left here alone

I've tried holding on
I've tried to lose the glow
You will never know
How I've tried to let you go
How I've tried to let you go
