I gave my heart to you

I set my standards high

I laid my eyes on you,
I laughed and cried with you,
I told you my hopes and dreams,
My Love and Fears.

My tears I shed all over your shoulder.

In the end,
I came to see that you were
the only guy I could ever trust.
When I see you,
my face lights up with aspiration, and happiness.
When we talk, I can feel the load unload
with soothing words from you.

I have the feeling of love in my heart.

In my mind, I say "You don't mean a thing. "
In my words, I say "You are just a friend. "
But in the deep end of my heart,
I think of only you

When I tell you my expectations of a guy,

You tell me never to fall short of what I want.
But only one thing stands in the way -
You are a friend.

Can I still love you the way that I do?

I've learned how to appreciate

And I've learned how to give.

But in these past few months

There's two I'll remember most
I've learned how to love
And I've learned to let go.
You entered my life with such a force
And left it with one as strong
And though we tried to make it last
We both knew it wouldn't be long.

I lie at night and think about

How I'm the one to blame.
If only I would have trusted you,
I could have missed this pain.

And so I spent each day of my life

With my heart in pieces
And when I thought it could never be cured,
Something happened; I expected it least.

I guess my soul was all cried out,

And it was tired of being used.
And even though I know I'm guilty,
I was tired of being accused.

And so I've learned to end this

Without an urge to cry
These are my final words to you,
"I love you and goodbye."
