I still remember the red ribbon

Hanging by my old window sill

That you tied as a token of love

Its absence is breaking my will

I close my eyes to the sun rays

For I'm used to livin' in the dark

I always knew that I was a cage

While you were a soaring lark

I held you back from spotlights

And snatched away your glory

Being too selfish, I hid you here

Just to weave our broken story

I wanted to own your existence

Each melody of your heart beat

Every one of your fragile breath

All the kisses stolen in the street

Glorious days in blinding lights

Magical nights filled with fame

I wanted my traces on all of this

I needed you above your name

I suffocated you every moment

Still, you struggled to hold it all

To keep me satisfied and happy

While fighting against that fall

Now, when you're gone long ago

I realise that you tried and tried

It's my fault, I couldn't share you

I took your glee while you cried

My soul breaks and shatters now

I feel your pain and suffocation

Diving into cruel waves of regret

I spend my days waiting at station

Oh return, I've learned my lesson

That true love is all about caring

No holding back and owning it all

Now I know, it's all about sharing
