Leaving
A. Vuolo / E. Grande Lyrics

It's quiet now and what it brings is everything
The silence brings back memories of everything that happened before.

Comes calling back a brilliant night
The memories of that brilliant night come back to mind.

I'm still awake
The singer is unable to sleep due to the flood of memories.

I looked ahead
The singer is looking towards the future.

I'm sure I saw you there
The singer has a feeling that they will see their loved one in the future.

You don't need me to tell you now
The singer assumes their loved one already knows how they feel.

That nothing can compare
Nothing can compare to the love that the singer has for their loved one.

You might've laughed if I told you
The singer feels that their loved one might not take their feelings seriously.

You might have hidden your frown
The singer feels that their loved one might not have shown their true emotions.

You might've succeeded in changing me
The singer feels that their loved one had an impact on their life.

I might've been turned around
The singer admits that their loved one might have changed the direction of their life.

It's easier to leave than to be left behind
The singer finds it easier to leave than to be left alone.

Leaving was never my proud
Even though leaving is easier, the singer is not proud of it.

Leaving New York never easy
Leaving New York is particularly difficult for the singer.

I saw the light fading out
The singer saw the love fading away.

Now life is sweet and what it brings
The present moment has its sweetness.

I tried to take
The singer tried to enjoy the present moment.

The loneliness it wears me out
The singer is struggling with loneliness.

It lies in wait
Loneliness is lurking around the corner.

And on a loss still in my eyes
The singer is still hurting from loss.

Shatter a necklace across your thigh
The singer remembers a moment when a necklace shattered on their loved one's thigh.

I might've lived my life in a dream
The singer admits that they might have been living in a fantasy.

But I swear this is real
The singer swears that their love for their loved one is real.

Memory fuses, and shatters like glass
Memories can either be vivid or shattered.

Mercurial future forget the past
The future is uncertain and should not rely on the past.

But it's you, it's what I feel
Regardless of the future or the past, the singer's love for their loved one remains true.

You find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart
The singer's love for their loved one is so strong that it is affecting them emotionally.

I told you forever, I love you it's forever
The singer declares their love for their loved one, promising it is forever.

You never
The end of the line is left unfinished, reflecting the singer's pain and loss.
