it was great, i'll admit
all the way up till 3 weeks before we split
you and me, we were great
you were someone i could really appreciate
until the end,
whe you'd ignore me and send
my heart in a whirl-wind
and it became a trend
and happened
again
and again
and again
i'll tell you this:
i almost left
but because of all you said,
and the notes of mine you read
i thought we had hope
and i tried my best to cope
then one day,
dare i say,
you rejected me for the first time
and because it had never happened i saw it as a crime
i knew something was different
and i knew you needed to repent
but...
you didnt
then the day i started my summer season
you gave me not nearly one reason
and you were gone faster than falling rain
and i almost couldnt take the pain
and while i was walking, you drove past me without saying a word
you didnt stop to say hello or wait for me at the curb
i cried, i shedded tears that day that i hadnt shed in a long time
and when i saw my first love the same day, he wanted me to be fine
when they stopped to say hi i asked them not to go
because i had already been left that day, and to leave they said "no"
they stayed until i left, just like you said you would
but you didn't keep your promise like you know you should
you said if i needed someone to talk to, i could go to you
you said if i needed someone to cry to, i could go to you
you said if i needed someone, that someone would be you
but come that day...now where are you?
you werent there
you said you only wanted to be friends
and now without you my heart amends
you said you didnt feel the same anymore
that hit me hard all the way to the core
and it made my heart so sore
just to find out you were running from yourself
but you didn't have to run from me...
you could have run to me
and now you realize your mistake
and im sorry, but you are much too late
you called yourself an idiot,
you know its you who did it
but remember this from that song you like:
"We've had one chance to, take back, but over and over again"
you didnt take that chance
"i never wanted to hear all the things that you told me"
but i did
and it says "your eyes are yet to be clear now"
but they are clear now
and i'm sorry, but no second chances
if i had done that to you, you would say the same
you told me yourself, many times and ways
you're right,
none of this would have happened if you hadnt run
but i there was someone there for me to pick up the pieces
you should have proved yourself the way he did
you should have tried as hard as he did
but now my heart is stolen
there is no pieces to be picked up
every piece of my shattered heart has been sealed
and you still have a part,
you will always be in my heart
but
its not the same size as the piece you had before
you see?
i cant do that,
its a plain fact
and you said you don't know what love is
well if you dont, then you must have been lying
the whole time, just lying
so i guess i didn't know what love was either
but i do now
so i'm sorry, but no second chances
because when i see my love my heart dances
and each day, that love grows and enhances
you said "fake roses never die, and niether will our love"
i still have that rose you gave me, its on the top shelf of my book case
i see it from time to time
fake roses never die, and i still love you
but only friend wise
i couldnt got through that again
not the end, again
you had your chance but now my heart is taken
with an invincible love unshaken
and joyfully it prances
so i'm sorry but no second chances
