Lyrics What a Relief - Laura Osnes

Nothing left but the shouting
Nothing left but the pain
Nothing left but the doubting
Nothing raining but rain

I should be feeling despondent
I should be lost in my grief
But all that I feel inside
Is what a relief
What a relief

My life's not a short story
My life's more than pretend
My life has it's tomorrows
Stories come to an end

Fictional hearts can be broken
Real ones don't heal all that well
Amazing to still be here
And what a relief

No, I don't regret the day that I first met you
No, there'll never be a time when I'll forget you
Oh, if only half the things I've lived and planned for
Turned out for the best

This will take getting used to
Something new on my mind
Somehow making a new start
Somehow hoping I'll find

Those moments we can advance to
Moments we have a chance to
Turn a new leaf
Those moments are few
And always too brief
But what a relief

And surely, you're still you
I'm still me, that's for certain
I'm still no good at letting go
So, please, let's not even say hello

Snow is falling all around, falling everywhere
I walk through it all alone, you're no longer there
