it has happened, it's over, it was meant to be so
it was good while it lasted, now its time to move on
you cant change it, live with it, make a song of your own
find a rythm of your life, find a path, find a way
and bring with you the good things, - just like they say
but dont walk in the shadows of what used to be
look above all the dark clouds, look ahead - not for me
walk outside, take a deep breath, then look up, see the sky?
you are here for a reason, and don't linger with "why"
feel the rain on your forehead, sense the breeze in your hair
put a hand on your chest, this is why you are here
feel your heartbeat, sense your breathing, it is here, it is now
so enjoy, live the present, and let go. Let it go
