*~* I wrote a letter yesterday/ Just trying to explain/ Couldn�t find the words to say/  Cause you are so far away/ So far away/ I wrote a letter yesterday/ It�s so hard for me to face/ That it had to end this way/ But my love will never change/ Will never change/ When I search my soul to find the truth about the love we shared/ I wonder why you�re not longer here *~*

I walked down the street, head hanging low.  I was so lonely, and I don�t understand why.  I take that back, yes I do know.  We were supposed to be together forever!  For years, I mean, three years, you were all I needed and you ended it.  Through thick and thin, we were there to help each other, now we�re alone.  I walked into my house and tossed my keys on the table next to my door.  I walked over to my desk and pulled out some paper, thinking I could write you and ask why?  Just why?  I grabbed the pen and started the heading, but lost all my nerve.  I let the tears flow and laid my head on the desk.

*~* You can just walk away/ But I don�t feel the same/ My heart still beats for you, breathes for you, sings for you/ And those feelings will never fade/ I can hide my pain/ But I can never hide the way I feel for you *~*

I laid down in bed, watching the TV.  I closed my eyes and saw images of you dancing in my mind.  Your dirty blonde hair waving in the wind.  Your green sparkling eyes, dancing when you laughed and  turning deep green when you got mad.  I climbed out of bed and walked downstairs.  I grabbed the photo album and looked back on the last three years we spent together.  I grabbed the ring that was in the back.  The engagement ring.  When I asked you, you said no, that things just didn�t feel right anymore.  I slammed the book and through it across the room.  I curled up in a ball and laid down on the couch, crying.

*~* I�ve been talking in my sleep/ About the way it used to be/  Girl, I pray that you�ll hear me/ And then I�ll see you in my dreams/ Oh, in my dreams/ But I can�t forget the words you said to move on with my life/ And no matter what, I�ll carry you inside *~*

I sat there, on the stool, listening to the TV talk show host asking us question.  For the most part, I just tuned her out.  It wasn�t until the question about us being with someone that I looked right at her.  I smiled and sadly shook my head.  I replied �no� and felt everyone just stare at me.  I smiled at them and prayed for the show to be over.  And once it was, I left as fast as I could.  I felt someone tap my shoulder and I turned around and saw Brian there.  He just looked at me and I started crying.  He gave me a hug and told me it was going to be all right.  I just shook my head and told him what happened.  He walked me to my car and drove me home.  For the rest of the day, we talked.

*~* Sooner or later you�re going to realize/ That this type of love happens once in your life/ So open your eyes, girl, and see what we could be/ Come back to me/ You can just walk away/ But I don�t feel the same/ My heart still beats for you, breathes for you, sings for you/ And those feelings will never fade/ I can hide my pain/ But I can never hide the way I feel for you *~*

With the help of the guys, I just let the pain ease.  But I realize that the love we had was something special and just won�t go away.  Every now and then, I take out the photo album and just think about us.  But, with the time, the pain eases.  Sure, it still hurts, but, things just have to move on.  And I realize that I, Nick Carter, can move on.  But I do know that there will be no one to ever compare to you.

*~* You can just walk away/ But I don�t feel the same/ My heart still beats for you, breathes for you, sings for you/ And those feelings will never fade/ I can hide my pain/ But I can never hide the way I feel for you *~* song by 98* 'Yesterday's Letter'
