For once I’d like to go to bed
And think of something new,
To close my eyes and not be swarmed
By memories of you,
Each night I lay in sad disgrace
And hear the words you said,
The way you said “I Love You”
Slowly running through my head,
And all the while I lay here
I am lost for what to do,
Should I run off and heal alone
Or heal with someone new?
Would it be wrong to still hold on
To all the love we shared?
Or am I only longing for
A girl that never cared?
Did I waste over 9 months
On a life I’ll never know?
Or are you longing secretly
To never let me go?
Do you still look back to a time
When we were lost in love?
When you were all my heart could see
And mind kept thinking of,
Perhaps it doesn’t matter though,
And I am just a fool,
An old and worn out lover, cast away,
A worthless tool,
But even if I am that tool
I’ll never find it bad,
I’m glad for what you taught me
And for what I thought we had,
I don’t expect to ever know
Exactly how you feel
But I am happy now, at last
to know that love is real.
