The best news I've ever heard was when you said you wouldn't leave 
Because I know the distance would tear us apart. 
And all the things you said, 
Wouldn't mean a thing if you weren't here with me. 
So as you turn your back to me, 
I just want to let you know that I could never do this to you. 
This is where our roads divide and they split in two, 
And I will never see you again. 
But I respect your choice. 
The familiar pain sets in again, 
But I can't let this drag me down. 
It's things like this that made me who I am today. 
It's thing like this that helped to shape/make me who I am today, 
It's every hardship that I've faced. 
And I've lost hope in myself, 
But I just want you to know: 
As everyday goes by, 
I must accept that you're now living your own life
