You wanted me to cry you a river
But instead I bled from the heart
You wanted me to finish
But I couldn't find a way to start
You promised you'd be there until the end
But one morning I awoke and you weren't there
You promised me that you'd always love me
But now I know you never really cared
When I first looked into your eyes
I saw my future at last
Years later I looked into them again
And all I can see was the past
A past that was so dark and dreary
That we'd like to forget
I wish we could leave the past behind
And go on with the life we have left
But sometimes when promises are broken
Just like the promise that you made
All the good memories of the past
Seem to slowly fade
And only the darkness of the past
Seems to remain in our minds
Hopefully the darkness will fade
As we make our journey through time
If you want me to bleed from the heart, I will
I'll even cry you a river if need be
I only ask that you save me from drowning
If my river becomes a raging sea
Perhaps we'll swim through the currents
Together we'll make it to shore
Perhaps we'll look forward to the future
And not the darkness of the past anymore
We'll lay in the sun
Enjoy the fresh air at last
We'll look forward to tomorrow
And forget the darkness of the past
