I must start by saying sorry

For the hurt I've been inflicting

Never my intention

But you never accepted guilty

Always played the victim

Never really listened

I have been fighting my monsters

I have been chasing dreams for all my life

But you made me hide

So I found a plane, bought a ticket

Flew my way back home to see

The people I've missed most

Then my heart began to notice

These autumn leaves still linger in places where my love have been

So long ago

But I know

That if I stayed I would have felt this cold anyway

Looking back, it's hard to follow

You told me who I should be

But now I see I'm happy with myself

Guess that I was feeling hollow

I let your words define me

Now I think I'm finally free

I had decided I can't stay

I had decided to put myself first

To cut off the worst

So I found a plane, bought a ticket

Flew my way back home to see

The people I've missed most

And my heart begin to notice

There's a cold kiss of winter

On my lips, so blue, so bitter

Such a lonely hue

Somehow it felt like you

And these autumn leaves

Still linger in places

Where my love have been

So long ago

But I know that if I stayed

I would have felt this cold anyway

So I found a plane, bought a ticket

Flew my way back home to see

The people I've missed most

And my heart began to notice

There's a cold kiss of winter

On my lips, so blue, so bitter

Such a lonely hue

Somehow it felt like you

And these autumn leaves

Still linger in places

Where my love have been

So long ago

But I know that if I stayed

I would have felt this cold anyway

But I know that if I stayed

I would have felt this cold anyway
