A Love Lost

How could I be so careless with you?
	Allowed my dreams to be expectations.
	I loved you so much but now I have lost you.

	To another’s arms I flew,
	what were my intentions?
	How could I be so careless with you?

	She laughed and bid me adieu,
	was I fooled by her fairy like tokens?
	I loved you so much but now I have lost you.


	Why could I not stay true?
	All that is left, just disillusions,
	How could I be so careless with you?

	While I was alone my love blossomed anew
	I think of you and my life sweetens
I loved you so much but now I have lost you.
