So long, Sadness

I’m leaving, leaving, my friend
I’m going to leave and live my life
In the other direction
I’m going to sow the seed of doubt and go on my way again
And go on my way again
 
I’ve loved you so much, my friend
I’ve loved you so much that you made your nest in my life
I’m going to fly away all the same
So long, sadness, it’s time I left you
 
I’ve let so many tears run, so many tears run
That I let the boat capsize,
Wounded and washed away by the waves, by the waves
Yes, I’ve let my laughter drown
 
I’m leaving
I’m going to dry my tears, my tears
Yes, I’m going far away from you, my sorrow
If I leave, it means the storm has passed, the storm has passed
It means I know that happiness is worth it
 
I’m leaving, my fine foe
I’m going to leave and live my life
In the other direction
You sowed the seed of doubt and I strayed from the path
And I strayed from the path
 
I’ve given you so much, given you all my woes
I’ve been dragging myself along for so many years
You as my sentence, I’m escaping all the same
So long, sadness, it’s time I left you
 
I’ve thrown away so many dreams, so many dreams
I’ve let you inflict all this pain on me
And the icy wind and the winters came and went, came and went
 
Then tore up my sails
 
I’m leaving, I’m going to set sail from the harbour
Yes, I’m going far away from you, my sorrow
If I leave, it means the dream isn’t dead
It means I know that happiness is worth it
 
I’m leaving, leaving, my friend
I’m going to leave and live my life
The wind has changed, it has sown the seed of hatred
We have forgotten that we love each other
We have forgotten that we love each other
 
I’m going to scatter my sorrows to the winds, to the winds
As long as the time is right, I’m going to teach self-love to the child I leave behind
So long, sadness, it’s time you left us
 
At least allow me the time to try, the time to try
Yes, give me one more chance
Oh yes, at least allow me the time to find, the time to find
The tiny trace of myself that will save me
 
I’m leaving, I’m clearing off once more
Yes, I’m going far away from you, my sorrow
Far from the cruel, cold and harsh winds
Because I’m certain that happiness is worth it
 
Yes, I’m leaving, I want to find the calm, the calm
Yes, far from you where I’ll be at peace
And I am the beacon, all I must do is let myself be guided
I have to believe that happiness is worth it
 
Yes, I’m leaving, finding the calm, the calm
Yes, far from you where I’ll be at peace
And I am the beacon, all I must do is let myself be guided
I have to believe that happiness is worth it
