I looked into your eyes

they told me plenty

I already knew.



You never felt a thing

so soon forgotten

all that you do

is more than words

I tried to tell you

the more I tried I failed



I would not let myself believe that you might stray

and I would stand by you no matter what they'd say.

I thought I'd be with you until my dying

day.



Until my dying day.



I used to think my life

was often empty

a lonely space to fill



you hurt me more than I ever could have imagined.

You made my world stand still

and in that stillness

there was a freedom I never felt before.



I would not let myself believe that you might stray

and I would stand by you no matter what they'd say.

I thought I'd be with you until my dying

day.



Until my dying day.
