If Only I Knew

I still remember that day you said you couldn’t leave The surprise overtook me almost knocked me off my feet For I never heard a man spoke those words so true I think that was the first day I fell in love with you the first day I remember actualy looking into your eyes connecting to your soul searching deep inside comforted by your promises of never saying goodbye if only then I knew that you would only make me cry if only then I knew that the promises would be broken that all that would be left over was memories of them spoken I think I could of braced myself for what was sure to come But its hard to see through love even with the damage done You hang on for dear life praying for a change But that grip only loosens and you start to feel the pain Losing control of all emotions and reality is gone Left over is a broke connection with our memory living on
