I can feel you slip away from me
You're flying high, when i'm still on my feet
And its never my intention to keep you from your dream
When you say you still need me,
That's not the way it seems
And i know how
Our lives might change with everything we do
But i know now
I can't take this chance away from you
When you love i cry
See the truth i hide
When i'm slowing down
You can keep running for miles
This isn't like me, this isn't like me
Your light's so bright for everyone to see
Keeping you to myself is an impossibility
And with every step you're moving further away from me
But i can't seem to let go
And love you selflessly
And i know how
Our lives might change with everything we do
But i know now
That i can't take this chance away from you
When you love i cry
See the truth i hide
When i'm slowing down
You can keep running for miles
This isn't like me
There's no reason for this pain
I bring it on myself
Coz nobody else shows the light you do
And its not like me to try to hold you back
You keep on running
And i know how
Our lives might change with everything we do
But i know now
I can't take this chance away from you
When you love i cry
See the truth i hide
When i'm slowing down
You can keep running for miles
This isn't like me, this isn't like me
