I saw her yesterday at the store
I have to say, she looked so good
The love we shared not long ago
Didn’t last like I thought it would
To this day I’m still not sure
Exactly where things went wrong
I promised her my love forever
But we didn’t last that long
In so many ways we were so alike
Our lives were a reflection of each other
We made sure to give each other space
So our love wouldn’t smother
I’m not sure what but something happened
Somehow we lost our way
Little by little the love we shared
Started to slowly slip away
I thought that we could hold on
I was sure we would survive
Both of us made it
But it was love that we watched die
But seeing her again today
Made old feelings come alive
But I knew when it came to us
Love would never have a chance to thrive
Who’s to blame, let’s say no one
Maybe the time just wasn’t right
No matter what I may feel now
I know we’ll never reunite
