never said goodbye

I stand there watching you walk away,
I let out a long slow sigh,
I never got to say goodbye,
You said its not you its me,
You said it isn't meant to be,
I felt my heart shatter,
I felt it break,
Being with you was a huge mistake,
All you do is break hearts,
All you do is break people apart,
You said you loved me,
You said that you couldn't put anyone above me,
I thought you meant what you said,
But I guess that was all in my head,
Right now I wish I'd listened to my friend,
Now that our relationship is at its end,
I wish we could have a run at it again,
But then I thought,
What's the point?
As I thought of all of these things
My phone began to ring
I picked it up and it was you,
I didn't know what to do,
I threw my cellphone on the floor,
Then I ran out my bedroom door
As I ran downstairs I guess my vision wasn't so clear
I guess I tripped over my shoes
And the last thing I heard was you.
You came through my front door,
You started to scream and you cried
As we said our goodbye's
You said it was all your fault.
AND IT WAS!... But I forgive you.
As they lay me to rest
In the after life I think this is for the best
As you are the one crying
On the inside you are dying.
