These Wings by John Jacob M. Webb

The clouds were gray and it wasn't raining yet
You took my hand and held me like I was yours
I held you tight and pretended you were mine
Love has never been tangible than this

Chorus:
But it was just make believe
Someone saved my life for the first time
You left my side when I opened my eyes
I was happy, It felt so good
But now it's killing me inside

You left my side and told me to move on
My dreams were shattered and my thoughts faltered
Those sandcastles I built got ruined by the storm
Don't know who's to blame, feels like I'm going insane

Bridge:
I don't wanna think I was a diversion (It's hurting me)
I'm left with nothing but a vision (That's all I really have)
These wings you gave me will help me take flight (To fly, to fly)
To flee, preserve my sanity (I tried so hard to hold on)
This is best to save my pride (I'll be alright, I'll be okay)
I'm gonna miss you (I really loved you...)
