The First Year (Single Version) Lyrics
The first time the leaves turn brown without you
The first time the snow falls down without you
Steady the earth seems to turn
When it feels like the end, the end of my world
Christmas won't feel the same without you
The world doesn't feel so safe without you
The date of your birthday draws near
But you'll never gain one more year
Though it's hard sometimes I always tend to smile
But the pain lies just beneath the surface all the time
And I know that time's a healer, yet it's my greatest enemy
'Cause every new day takes you further away from me
Away from me
Away from me
It's funny how life goes on without you
And everyone rushes on around you
Is it really a year since you've passed
Oh I can't believe it went so fast
Though it's hard sometimes I always tend to smile
But the pain lies just beneath the surface all the time
And I know that time's a healer, yet it's my greatest enemy
'Cause every new day takes you further away from me
Away from me
Away from me
How I wish that I could talk to you once more
Or see you smiling at me coming through the door
But this trip's a one way ticket and deep inside I know
That every new day bit by bit I let you go
I let you go
