Standing on the platform Watching you go It's like no other pain I've ever known To love someone so much To have no control You said "I wanna to see the world" And I said "go" I think I'm lost without you I just feel crushed without you I've been strong for so long I never thought how much I needed you I think I'm lost without you Strangers rushing past Just trying to get home But you were the only Safe haven that I've known Hits me at full speed Feel like I can't breathe And nobody knows This pain inside me My world is crumbling I should never have Let you go I think I'm lost without you I think I'm lost, lost, lost I think I'm lost without you, you I just feel crushed without you I've been strong for so long That I never thought how much I love you Standing on the platform Watching you go You said "I wanna see the world" And I said "go"
