Was You

The day I turned around and thought I was alone
I saw you there, that smile on your face held me captive
Hands out for me, my heart closing in

You saved me from myself when there was no one for me
Took me close and cried with me
Dried my tears and made me laugh

Who told me to let it go?
Was you.
Who held me like no other?
Was you.
Who taught me to feel again?
Was you,
Was you,
Was you...

We grew together and held each other like no other
I learned to let people in with you beside me
Learn to let my feelings run free with you beside me always

I never wanted that sweet smile to leave
It lit my dark world like no other
Your laugh helped me smile and I never wanted it to leave

Who held me together?
Was you.
Who brought me happiness with just a touch?
Was you.
Who would I hold in my heart, closely trusted?
Was you,
Was you,
Was you...

I thought I could see you differently
To see you as my light in the dark
But time passed on and I learned it wasn't as I thought

You led me to believe that all was okay
That I was safely in your trust thought it was a foggy haze
I should have learned better than to believe angels were real

Who taught me that I was blind?
Was you.
Who showed me that life was a dreamt illiusion?
Was you.
Who did I trust with my all only to be shattered?
Was you,
Was you,
Was you...

I've broken that barrier that held me to you
I've learned to keep my heart from my  sleeve
I've learned to continue on my own to keep my wall

I look back now and realized you put me in a haze of lies
My heart has grown from lava to rock
I e built my walls higher and stronger than ever before
Now I hope you've learned that we were aligned but now no more

Who made me stronger?
Was you.
Who taught me not to be so naive?
Was you.
Who is now my past and my regret?
Was you,
Was you,
Was you...
