I thought I knew everything,
When I was young,
I had you and gave you up so easily,
Didn’t know what I was setting free,
Years later I come to my senses,
Suddenly I felt what I’d been missing,
Once you were out of sight,
I could never have you the way I had,
The impact of losing you,
Memories of us so vivid and bright,
Make it hard to swallow,
I need your voice,
I need your arms around me,
I can’t stand up without you,

Would you leave her if you knew?
All these ceaseless feelings that burn for you,
Isn’t this what you always wanted?
I still have a home in your heart,
Every reason I can find leaves me with hope to hold onto,
Why did you give up fighting?
Persistence pays off too late,
Now I’m waiting,
For a day that may never come,
When you realize I was the one.
