I came to you, with so much hope
That love was real, and we would cope
I trusted all, the words you said
They seemed to always be inside my head.

And then one day, I had a fear
That you no longer held me dear
The truth it seemed, I did not know
The love you no longer seemed to show.

How could it be, I wondered why
I gave you all, so hard I tried
The hours and days seemed to go by so fast
And yet I knew, this would not last.

I cried forever, and so it seemed
You begged to be forgiven, and be redeemed
How can I believe these words you say
I've struggled with pain, to go on my way.

What makes you think I should want to be there
What makes you believe, with you my life I should share
You couldn't see the love in me
Now I know in love, there are no guarantees.

I wish you the best, even though you were wrong
In each passing day, God has kept me strong
One day you will realize love isn't a game
And when trust is gone, it is never the same.

I know some day, I will love again
But for now, I can only call you my friend
I hold on to my dreams, and hold on to my heart
But now my friend, I shall have to part.
