[Intro]

I regret letting you go
But I don’t regret letting you know
That I do because it’s true
I hope you remember me
As I remember you

[Verse]

I remember when you used to hug your teddy bear
While you lay in your bed at night
Because you felt so alone
You gave the teddy bear my name
And suddenly you could feel me there
You gave it all of your love
My smile you drew on your teddy bear
And in the darkness of your room
Suddenly there was light everywhere
Yeah there was light everywhere

[Chorus]

It shines on the picture of us on your wall
You would have thought it would be fading
But true love can never disappear
On the other side of the moon
The soul of your heart is waiting
For you to leap into his arms
For you to tell him how you feel
For him to make your teddy bear
Become what you know is real

[Verse]

Although you are with someone else
You still keep our love in your teddy bear
As you fall asleep you hold me close
Suddenly you can feel me there
You are safe now so you smile
And in the darkness of your room
Suddenly there is light everywhere
Yeah there is light everywhere

[Chorus]

It shines on the picture of us on your wall
You would have thought it would be fading
But true love can never disappear
On the other side of the moon
The soul of your heart is waiting
For you to leap into his arms
For you to tell him how you feel
For him to make your teddy bear
Become what you know is real

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Our love shines in the picture on your wall
You would have thought our love would be fading
But true love can never disappear
On the other side of the moon
The soul of your heart is waiting
For you to leap into his arms
For you to tell him how you feel
For him to make your teddy bear
Become what you know is real


[Outro]

Because as long as I know
That your heart has a place to call home
I’ll be happy for you
But I’ll always regret letting you go
You will never be alone
And when the sun comes out
I’ll still be happy for you
Even as my heart turns to stone


The author's comments:
I was inspired to write this song from emotions I still have towards my girlfriend but also because I wanted to write something people could relate to on some level. if the person you really love isn't there with you, you may personify their spirit into something else. In the girl in the song's case, it was in a teddy bear:)
