[VERSE 1]
You told me you'd never let go,
Life was better with me by your side,
Welcoming me with open arms,
We let our hearts collide
No matter where I go,
Your memory is there,
And if that is all I have left,
I'll handle it with care.
[CHORUS]
Take back your lovely words,
They don't belong to me,
I won't let you take my smile,
You just won't be there to see.
The world keeps on turning,
Though sometimes I think it's you,
But over time I've come to learn
That never was true.
[VERSE 2]
I try to convince myself
You're really gone for good,
My mind keeps on telling me,
But my heart misunderstood.
You left me in a cloud of dust,
It landed in a pile on the floor,
The truth is in there somewhere,
But I don't want to find it anymore.
[CHORUS]
[VERSE 3]
You told me there was still a chance,
But that's fading with time,
Those days that meant so much to you,
Will mean nothing more than a dime.
Our memories were never bad,
With them, I never wish to part.
Maybe you'll forget about me,
But you'll always be in my heart.
So keep your lovely words,
They don't belong to me,
You can't take away my smile,
You created it, don't you see?
My world keeps on turning,
My world once was you,
But over time I've come to learn,
That you were never true.
