| I sit here all alone Drowning in the rain I never thought one person Could cause me so much pain. The rain seems to fall Syncronized with my tears As I think of how you threw away All of those most cherished years. I hear it falling fast Watch it flowing to the ground It reminds me I'm without you How I'm lost and never found. I close my eyes and see you And somehow I feel so scared Thinking of our many memories All the times that we once shared. I remember how you used to sit And hold me in the dark And it makes it hard to figure out Just what happened to that spark. What happened to the promises You made to never leave All the nights we talked for hours About the way our lives would be. We made so many plans For finally living on our own To keep building our relationship Start a family and home. I know that we were young But all of this still feels so real And the feelings we once shared Are ones that I'll forever feel. If only I could change The way things went that dreadful night I would have never walked away I would have never caused that fight. I know you'll never love me In the way I wish you would But I pray to God you'd tell me If you ever thought you could. I don't know why your heart changed And somehow it did not last These painful thoughts of our future No longer work out with the past. But you know people change And now I know that too Because now you don't want me Though I'll forever cherish you. You taught me everything I know How to stay strong and believe How a bond between to people Is the best gift to receive. Don't tell me you can't say A part of us will never die Although I'm sure there comes a day I'm finally out of tears to cry. I thank God every evening For just sending you to me Even though it wasn't long enough This must be how it's supposed to be. And if only you could love me In the way I wish you could I would give up everything If I only thought you would. I try to think of what went wrong I try to understand And I remember that fun-loving feeling Of merely holding your hand. I think of how I'll miss you How much it hurts to let you go And how there are so many things That I still want you to know. If I had a million years To say all there is to say You know my love I would never Have to leave you in this way. I will never be the same An equal love I'll never give But now I must move on And find a better life to live. I thought we'd stick together Up until the day we die I never thought I'd give you Such an early last good-bye. But we both know I have to go I can no longer stay I have to turn around And be strong and walk away. And with our final words I'd like to say I'm glad we met And know a love like ours Is one my heart will not forget. So please do not forget me Hold me close inside your heart And do not think about the end Just remember our perfect start. |
