I gave you my heart
And you played the part
Of the boy in my dreams
Who was tearing at the seams.
You helped me to see
What I could be
If I were to try
To get by In someone else's shoes.
I can not believe
You helped me to see
What life would be like
If I weren't to flee
From every little thing.
You told me a lie
But I will get by.
I wish you could see
What I have grown to be
Without you today
You helped me to say,
"I can live my life without you."
