Lyrics to “Farewell For Now”

I’ll take the long way home so I can clear my mind tonight
If I could see your face I know then I’d be just fine
Cuz everything feels so right whenever you’re around
Am I just looking for what I’ve already found?
And I only want the best for you
Even if it means we’re through

And it’s clear that distance is our enemy for now
But if it’s meant to be, then it will be somehow
If I could go back now I’d change so many things
But the past is what it is and this is why I sing
I only wanna see you happy
Even if it’s without me

And we’ll see if this is how it’s meant to be
Are we holding on to what’s already gone from our hands
Time will tell the truth just like a nightfall hits land
I’m sorry that I didn’t treat you like an angel
Cuz that’s exactly what you are

Seems like the more it hurts the more I understand
That I wasn’t ready yet to take your hand
There’s only one thing left I want to do
Is take back everything I put you through
And I only wanna see you happy
Even if it’s without me

And we’ll see if this is how it’s meant to be
Are we holding on to what’s already gone from our hands?
Time will tell the truth just like a nightfall hits land
I’m sorry that I didn’t treat you like an angel
Cuz that’s exactly what you are

So I guess this is farewell for now
And I’ll find you in the end somehow
