about

Leaving you was my (Jun’s) first attempt at lyric writing. It proved to be a difficult process, to capture something real, dynamic, and visceral within the bounds of words and rhymes. My hope is that it managed to convey something that is both personal and universal - the experience of leaving someone who you love, someone who meant to you.

lyrics

I saw you standing there
With teardrops in your eyes
Your smile could not disguise, oh
You fell to me

Each day I realize
I hate saying goodbyes
The memories terrorize
You fell to me

Never wanted nothing else yeah,
To be myself and find my own path
Leaving you and what we had was
Never really part of that plan

Now that I am walking alone
Looking for a piece of my soul
I start to think inside
Maybe that home is you

Hair, skin, lips
With every piece of you
Heart break grips
Into my soul and it
Hurts me
It breaks me
You meant to me

I think of days gone by
With teardrops in my eyes
And strangers by my side, oh
You told to me

I don’t want you to go
become the man I want
you to go become
It spoke to me


Hair, skin, lips
With every piece of you
Heart break grips
Into my soul and it
Hurts me
It breaks me

Time stands still
With every thought of you
Hearts still linked
Deep with your soul and it
Hurts me
It breaks me
You meant to me

I think of days gone by
Beneath the deep blue skies
The memories crystalize
They’re here with me

Today I realize
The visions in my mind
No longer terrorize
You meant to me
