lyrics

I've been warned
not to look back along the way.
I might lose you.
I might lose you.
But no one thought to tell me
just how hard this would be.

Just how far can I go
without you beside me?
Are you still behind me?
I've fought too hard
to bring you back
to risk it all right now.

I don't know. It just feels wrong
without you by my side.
I need your glow, your angel's song
to put this mess to rights.

Move on are the only words
that I've heard for so long, and yet I
cannot fathom a world
where I would cooperate with their lies.
You're gone. They say I should agree
to give up. Leave your memory behind.
They say you're no longer here,
but you live on in legends.

I found you there behind the door
and held you 'til my hands were sore.
You've never felt this cold before.
This must be an illusion.
Enough to chill me to the bone.
You looked so lonely on your own,
so much I had to join you.
Please forgive me the intrusion.

If you were in a million pieces,
I would find them all.
From the valley to the mountain.
From the river to the sea.
I'd search the whole world for you.
There is nothing that I wouldn't do.
I'd scour every corner
and I'd venture underneath.

There's nowhere above or below
that can keep me away.
I'd risk it all to reach you so
we'll meet again someday.

Move on are the only words
that I've heard for so long, and yet I
cannot fathom a world
where I would cooperate with their lies.
You're gone. They say I should agree
to give up. Leave your memory behind.
They say you're no longer here,
but you live on in legends.

It's not enough.
It's all I have.
How can I give any more?
I need some way to find you
in that sea beyond the shore.

Move on are the only words
that I've heard for so long and yet I
just don't know how to live in a world
where you're gone, and that isn't a lie.
Say something. This silence is more
than I can bear. Don't leave me behind.

They say you're no longer here.
