A Story Told, But Never Really Heard

Broken Hearted Mysteries

He said he loved me
That he always would

He said forever
Then he left

He said he wanted happiness for all
Then he hurt us both

He said he wasn't stable enough for a relationship
That he tried

Well guess what?

I loved him too
I still do

I believed forever was possible
I still do

I've only ever found happiness with him
I know our pain can be healed

I wasn't stable enough either
But I didn't give up

And you know what?

We still love each other
That hasn't changed

We still love forever
If only he'd open up to try

We're happier together than apart
Why can't he see that

Now we both know our instabilities
We can make it through a second try

Oh wait...

He's falling for someone else
He has been for a while

I want forever
He wants someone new

He's happier with her
So I should just give up

I'm but a hopeless romantic who believes in second chances
He's already moving on to someone new

Oh how I wish he could just see
How much this is killing me
He says he still loves me
That he's hurting like crazy
So why can't we just start over
Why is that not a possibility to him
Now we both know what may happen
That he may lose control again
That he may want to give up again
Why can't we take that knowledge
To help us get through this
And any other situation like this
Why can't we use this to grow stronger than before
Why can't we just go back to Sunday
Before all this mess started
Before he panicked
Before he gave in
Before he gave up without asking for help to fight
All I want is to go back
To when we were happy
To when we were together
Despite my fears of relationships
And despite his instabilities
I just want to go back
I just want him back

Please come back, darling, I need you.
