Love's dying sound

There comes a time to each of us
A decision we must make
To let go of a futile wish
And hopes and dreams forsake

As hard as it might be to learn
Some things aren't meant to be
When the moment finally comes
You face reality

For no matter how you hoped
And to a thing you clung
You have to face a bitter truth
That two can't be as one

You can't help but feel regret
And tears of sadness cry
You mask the pain inside your heart
And say your last goodbye

This hunting, tear-stained melody
Floats endlessly above
The sound made by a broken heart
Inspired by dying love
