A Turn For the Worse

I'm left without a single thing to say You just walked out yesterday My pride wouldn't let me stand in your way I'm a little hurt but I'm OK Just wonder what it was that made you leave did you see something that you didn't want to see some variance or insincerity a darker side of me You'd think I would have wanted to steal you blind Hurt you somehow maybe waste your time I only wanted to hold your hand I was hoping maybe you could understand me So you go your way and I'll go mine I'm sure everything will work out fine I know you never meant to be unkind We're just a question that got lost in time Things just kind of took a turn for the worse It's just a question of who gets burnt first I'll sit here and try to write the next verse Saints will pray and sinners curse but you'd think I would've wanted to steal you blind Hurt you somehow maybe waste your time I only wanted to hold your hand I was hoping maybe you could understand me

Loosing someone who one cares for is painful but there is the right one for you out there somewhere. Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara
