I looked into your eyes

they told me plenty

I already knew

you never felt a thing

so soon forgotten all that you do

in 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 would have 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 would 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 would have thought I'd be with you

until my dying day

until my dying day
