You loved me

I loved you

If there was anything

Those things I knew

But now I don’t know

Don’t know who you are

How’d you slip away from me?

How’d you get so far?

I believed in us

I had the uttermost faith

But when I needed you most

You showed up too late

I watched out for you

When you needed me I was there

But when it was my time to be helped

You didn’t even care

Now nothing seems closer

Or farther away

Then the love we used to have

And the hatred we have today

When you were lonely

When you were down

I was there to make you laugh

I was there to lift your frown.

But when It came for my despair

I waited for you to phone

But it wasn’t meant to be you see,

It was a love we never owned.
