See Me Now

See Me Now — cover art

About this song

The quiet aftermath of a breakup, written from the far side of healing. He didn't know how to receive her love while she broke off beautiful pieces of her own soul to make him whole. Now he's doing all the things they dreamed about — and late at night still wonders: if you could see me now, would you be proud?

Lyrics

Slowly but steady I'm moving on And not every song that I write is about you I'm trying to forgive myself Like you told me to do And I guess You're moving on too I didn't know how to receive your love And it's not like you didn't Gave me enough Broke of beautiful pieces of your own soul Just to make me feel happy Make me feel whole But it's late at night and I wonder If you could see me now Would you be proud I'm doing all the things we dreamed about Is it dumb that I'm still hanging onto us Maybe it's time for me to adjust To being alone You gave me more than I could ask for Yet I felt the need, to keep slamming doors No I never meant to cause you harm And It's good that we rang the alarm Oh, but some nights I wish you would still be in my arms I didn't know how to receive your love And it's not like you didn't Gave me enough Broke of beautiful pieces of your own soul Just to make me feel happy Make me feel whole But it's late at night and I wonder If you could see me now Would you be proud I'm doing all the things we dreamed about Is it dumb that I'm still hanging onto us Maybe it's time for me to adjust To being alone I loved Our nights Alone I loved Our nights Alone I loved Our nights Alone I loved Our nights Alone If you could see me now Would you be proud? I'm doing all the things we talked about Is it dumb that I'm still hanging onto us Maybe it's time for me to be Be on my own
