A Way It Goes

I can show you how he left me

Paint a picture, growing flowers for nobody

But I’d rather you see me thriving,

Vining my way back up

I could say it’s a leviathan of lonely

Hanging around the whole place haunting

Don’t care if no one ever wants me again

Oh, you know, there’s a way love goes

It goes away, away it goes

It just takes off

And up and away love goes

I could tell you I felt like I was dying

Hugged my knees to my chest crying, I couldn’t stop

I rocked and rocked while he just stood there and watched

I could show you a real shattering

A bird flown into a glass window collapsing

But I’d rather you see me flying

Happily ever after the aftermath

Oh, you know, there’s a way love goes

It goes away, away it goes

It just takes off

And up and away love goes

It goes away, away it goes

It just takes off

And up and away love goes

Spent a year looking inward and healing

Made some new friends

Don’t ask about the deep end

Even I couldn’t believe it

When I felt my heart sprouting feathers

And I caught myself dreaming again
