I know it was right,
to let you go,
I miss you so much,
but you'll never know.
You broke my heart,
I don't know why,
I still love you,
I thought I was ready to say goodbye.
We promised to be friends,
I could use a friend like you,
I thought we could actually talk a lot,
but none of that was true.
I see you in the halls at school,
you walk right by,
never noticing me there,
not even bothering to say hi.
This really hurts my feelings,
not like you care,
I know my feelings matter,
it just isn't fair.
Sometimes I read the letters,
that you once wrote me,
they talked about love,
and that we were meant to be.
As I look at your picture,
the tears roll down my face,
remembering the way things were,
no one can take your place.
When you gave me a ring,
I thought it symbolized love,
all my prayers were answered,
He sent someone from heaven above.
I truly felt loved,
can you tell me why?
It all ended so suddenly,
I only had time to cry.
As I try so hard,
to push you out of my heart and mind,
I remember how you were,
so nice, sweet and kind.
It's been two months,
since we've been together last,
I keep telling myself,
all that was in the past.
As I try to move on,
I find myself getting stuck behind,
thinking of what I gave you,
you were supposed to be mine.
I gave you my heart and soul,
I didn't know what you'd do,
I didn't think you'd cheat on me,
that just wasn't you.
But as luck would have it,
that's exactly what you did,
I eventually found out,
the horrible truth you hid.
Sorrow filled me up inside,
like nothing had before,
you were supposed to love me,
I was the one you were supposed to adore.
I couldn't even be mad at you,
no matter how hard I tried,
there were so many different feelings,
It hurt so much inside.
As I lay that night,
crying myself to sleep,
the pain hurt so bad,
all I could do was weep.
I could feel my heart breaking,
I really didn't think I could
move on like I was supposed to,
even though I knew I should.
Then suddenly he was there,
helping me get through
the hardest time of my life,
only he knew.
As he helped me put it all behind me,
the pieces of the puzzle started to fall into place,
now at night when I dream,
I see his darling face.
I realised that it was him,
that I truly love,
he was my man,
he was from heaven above.
Now I see,
the mistake I made,
it was him I wanted,
all memories fade.
Now I have forgotten my lost love,
I truly was wrong,
to think you were mine,
when it was him all along.
