Every step brought you back to me
Like a ghost in my melody
Your voice still hums in the night so low
In every place I used to go
Time moves on but I still stay
Lost in yesterday
But I, I won't cry no more
Though it hurts like before
Every tear helped me see
Who I'm meant to be
For the past may remain
Like a soft falling rain
But it don't hold me down
I'm still standing my ground
Mm
There were nights I could barely breathe
Holding on to what I couldn't keep
Broken dreams on an empty chair
Your shadow still sitting there
But a voice deep inside my soul
Said, "Boy, you gotta let it go"
Love don't leave, it just changes form
Keeps your heart warm
No, I, I won't cry no more
I found peace in the storm
All the pain, all the years
Turned my doubts into tears
Now the past softly fades
In the choices I've made
And I carry the light
From those old days tonight
Mm
Hm
The past don't break you
Mm
It makes you whole
