I yearned for your embrace 
To feel your warmth and grace 
But you gave it all 
To someone else's space

I hoped you'd see through 
The clouds that obscured my view 
But you found clarity 
In her eyes, not mine, it's true

I wanted you to be the one 
To catch me when I come undone 
But you left me to fall 
For her, you'd do anything at all

Now I wonder how to mend 
This heart that you didn't defend 
Maybe you weren't meant to be 
My soulmate, my destiny

I'll find someone who'll wait 
For my clouds to dissipate 
Who'll hold my hand gently 
And love me as I am, completely

And when I do, I'll believe in love again 
For there's someone out there who'll remain 
My better half, my missing piece 
Who'll make my heart skip a beat, with ease.
