It's been awhile since the last time I saw you
It's been a long year, and it felt like forever
I never thought this day would come
Never thought I'd see you around
Never thought I'd see you
One last time

But here we are
On this very same spot in town
Standing face to face
Holding each other's hand
Our eyes locked together
Back to where we're supposed to be
Back to where it all started

I can still see you
Your eyes still shines like fireworks
in the night sky
Your smile still wide and contagious
Just like how they used to smile at me
Like how they light up everyday and everything
They still put a light on my face

And baby,
You still feel like home
You're arms still feel like home
But they're not mine now
They're not for me anymore
Like they used to

As for me
I still see fireworks in your eyes
I still see the light every time you smile
I still feel the butterflies in my stomach
I still feel the fire inside, it's still burning
I can still feel the flames
Running through my veins
It wont fade away

And unlike mine
My eyes are sadder than before
My smile never wider
Because since you left
All the beautiful colors
Turns into black and white
And all I can see is grey

And I hope you know...
I still keep your letters in my room
That I cut my nails shorter now
That I still watch our favorite movie
And I don't dye my hair anymore
That I still look up to our favorite star
The one right next to the moon

And I hope you know
That after all these times
You're still the one
You're still the one
I want to wipe away my tears
And fix my broken heart

I hope you know
You will always have the best of me
You're the only one
I want to hold my hand
And save me from this screaming pain
I feel inside

But I know
We both know
That this day is never meant to last
And as much as I don't want you to go
I know I have to let you go

And you know I'm not good at hiding my pain
So as I'm breaking right in front of you
You take my hand
And wrapped me around your arms
Tighter than you ever did before
I never thought you'd cry
Because between you and me
you were always the stronger one

This is not how we wanted it to end
But even if all the universe conspires
To keep us together

We know...
That love like us,
Were never meant forever.
