Letting Go Of A Dream

You used to be the one I would call when someone broke my heart.
The first one to know when once again true love had struck.
The longest time I’ve ever kept up, kept with or ever loved someone.
And always there in my heart, I thought you might just be the one.
But seven years does a lot and it causes so much change.
Everyone around us always found us rather strange.
A guy and a girl so close, yet no romantic exchange?
It’s been my dream but life has moved on, and maybe so should we…

(chorus)
You were the one in my dream, white picket fence and happily ever after.
But circumstance seems to indicate, that maybe things aren’t as certain as they seem.
I feel it fading, growing more apart with every day.
And now I feel the time has come… I’m letting go of a dream.

He has become your world, it seems so right, more than I can ever be.
And she’s here standing by my side, and she seems the perfect one for me.
I’m not sure whether I should cry, thinking that the end of something’s come.
It’s a bittersweet feeling knowing this end means, a whole new world has just begun..

(Repeat Chorus)
