A severed tie from long ago
How I haven't seen you so
Whatever happened, remember the time
How are you doing? I'm doing fine
Trivial statements, meaningless chat
Reminiscing dreams from the past
But all we are is a memory eroded by the years

Together forever, we will never break
The empty promises we had to take
Somber seasons they remain the same
But you and I have definitely changed
It just wasn't meant to be
Years removed and now I see
Those memories will never bring us back
It will never bring us back

A severed tie from long ago
How I haven't seen you so
Stacks and stacks of photographs
Buried in closets under wraps
Such high hopes have turned aside
Because of feelings we had to hide
Goodbyes are all that I have for you
All that I have left for you
