Down my face
falls another tear, And the breaking of
my heart is the only sound I hear. I
wipe away the tears and try to be
strong, As I wonder why things went so
wrong. You promised me your love
forever more, When you came knocking at
my hearts door. I was only 17, so
young and nieve, After 25 years together
I'm still being deceived. Seems like
with you, tears is all I've ever known,
From all the things you've never shown.
You never cared about the tears I
cried, Or noticed how slowly my love for
you died. You never gave any love in
return, So how could the fire continue
to burn. Somewhere between the ashes
and fire, Lays a love that died from
lack of desire. Now it's time to
move on with my life, And forget about
the pain that has cut like a knife.
