DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN I HELD YOU IN MY ARMS,
CALLED YOU MY ANGEL…AND PROMISED TO LOVE YOU FOR LIFE?
SINCE THEN…I’M ASHAMED OF THE VOID,
LOSING YOU…HAS LEFT IN MY LIFE.

SEEMS SO INSIGNIFICANT,
CONSIDERING ALL I’VE BEEN THROUGH.
TRUTH IS…NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCE I FOUND MYSELF,
ALL I EVER DID…WAS THINK OF YOU.

HOW SOFTLY YOUR LIPS TOUCHED MINE,
HOW YOUR EYES WOULD SPARKLE IN THE NIGHT.
THE JOY I FELT…AS I WENT TO SLEEP,
AND KNEW…WHEN I AWOKE…YOUR FACE WOULD BE MY FIRST
SIGHT.

SOMEWHERE ALONG THE WAY…I LOST SIGHT OF THAT,
AND THE NIGHTMARE OF LOSING YOU BECAME REALITY.
NOT A DAY GOES BY…I DON’T WISH FOR THE POWER,
TO ERASE THE TEARS YOU SHED…BECAUSE OF ME.

FOR SO LONG I’VE FELT YOU SHOULD’VE BEEN,
MY LOVER & FRIEND…MY CONFIDANT & WIFE.
ALAS…THE WORLD ALWAYS SEEM DIFFERENT,
WHEN VIEWED IN HINDSIGHT.

NOW…MY FAILURE…MY DISAPPOINTMENT,
HAS SHAPED ME INTO A DIFFERENT KIND OF MAN.
ONE WHO KNOWS THE BEAUTY OF HAPPINESS,
BUT ALSO KNOWS THE STING OF IT SLIPPING THROUGH HIS HANDS.

A MAN WHO KNOWS LOVE,
LIKE MOST PEOPLE ONLY DREAM ABOUT.
WHO VALUES THE WORD LOVE AND KNOWS,
I SHOULD MEAN IT…EACH & EVERY TIME IT COMES OUT MY MOUTH.

A LESSON THAT COMES AT A PRICE,
UNFORTUNATELY…ONE I CONTINUE TO PAY.
ONE THAT I FEAR…WILL LIVE IN MY HEART FOREVER,
AND CONTINUE TO HURT ME…IN A WAY.

NOW I SEE YOU…YOU’VE MOVED ON,
BUT OUR HISTORY…WILL ALWAYS LIVE WITH ME.
WHAT WE HAD…WHAT WE SHARED…WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN,
AND UNFORTUNATELY…WHAT WILL NEVER BE…
