Memoirs Of A Lost Romantic

Forgive me Charla, for the words I could not speak
Don�t hold me to the lies I spoke, while our love grew cold and weak.
I wish we�d never happened, Stacey, it wasn�t for the best
I broke your heart, I do confirm, but another did the rest.
You can�t exepect me to take the blame, for sins I did commit
We were all but children...
Something we never could admit

How can I describe you, Holly? You�ve never gone too far.
Still looking at me, waiting, for a piece of who you are.
I can�t help it that I took you, but then you had me with a smile,
You�d just choose to give me back, while I kept you all the while
It�s funny how in time, the tables..? They have turned...
I never should have loved you, what with the lessons I have learned.
Now I am you, and you are me, our roles stand cold... reversed
You wait for me, my dear, but was my waiting any worse?

Dear Brittny, who I loved so much, and who loved me not at all...
I apologize for all I did, and our four months in the fall.
You never wanted what we were, to this you must concede
You always looked upon another as a way to meet your needs.
I really fell in love with you, despite the things I said,
But you became so different, and who I was is dead.
I keep our memories locked away, because it hurts my eyes to see
That despite all I placed in you, you never trusted me.

Are you dreaming still, Elisabeth? You don�t tell me anymore.
Our time together wasn�t long, but it shook me to the core.
You opened me to live again, when I�d tried to shut the door
It took your touch to lift me back to the man I was before.
I cannot thank you well enough, for all that you have done
You deserve only the best, you know, I hope you�re having fun.
Will you think of me, in college? Will you think of me on stage?
In a book you write about yourself, will I make it on a page?
Of anyone I�ve ever known, you have the guts to dream...
Please be careful in the world, not all things are what they seem.

Samantha, whom I do not regret.. I am sorry for my pride
I broke your heart, I broke my own, I cheated and I lied.
You only wanted to love me, and I wanted nothing of
Any kind of true commitment... any kind of special love
You seem, to me, so jaded. So hurt by all the world
You should smile more often, Sam... you�re a very pretty girl.
It was so much about you that made me see
That you had something different, something beautiful to me.
I know you�ve found another, now, and you�re happy where you are
But I�ll still be watching out for you... I�ll never go too far

Now in my life, there�s Kaylan... and she holds my tired heart.
I long for our time together, and despise our time apart.
She brings out in me a person, someone whom I�ve never known
A wanderer has found his destination... a lover, and his home.

For my past, I cannot say... that I am proud of what I�ve done.
But tomorrow is a new day, one with the happiness I�ve won.
I can�t predict the future, there�s no writing all these walls,
But I can attone for mistakes I�ve make... and try to thank you all.
For being part of a life that�s made me the man I am today
I was once lost, but now I�m found.. you�ve helped me find my way.
