The First Year Songtext
von Somna

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


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

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
