When I walked away,
I counted every single step that I took-
Sometimes rushing on,
Sometimes taking my time,
Sometimes even stopping
To get a glimpse of what I left behind.
I counted a thousand steps
Knowing deep in my heart
Wishing from beyond the universe
That those steps would bring me back to you-
That I just had to turn around, and run,
And count a thousand steps
To bring me back to you.
But I now know-
Going back a thousand steps
Won't bring me back to you,
For you've walked away
Just as I did.
So I walk on-
On and on-
Losing count-
Not slowing down-
Not stopping-
Not turning around-
And,
Letting go-
I'm not counting anymore.
Losing you-
I'm letting myself go.
