A Waste of Time

You used to be so in love with me Once upon a time I meant everything to you I took one look into those eyes so blue And I found myself head over heels too We were almost always on the phone But now anytime it rings It's never your smile followed by your ringtone Yet to your memory my heart clings After everything you put me thru You'd think it'd be easy to let you go Still it felt like the hardest thing I'd ever have to do I just kept telling myself to take it slow Taking one day at time Telling myself time was all it would take Sure that sooner or later I'd be just fine And for you my heart would no longer ache Just never thought it would take this long Didn't think the little things would still get to me But sometimes all it takes is that one song And I find with my heart I must plea So I don't fall too far back Cuz it took so long for me to get here Finally feel like I'm on the right track Learning to live with my biggest fear But none of that matters anymore Cuz the thoughts and feelings we shared Are nothing more than an old memory from before You more than showed you no longer cared Hidden behind all your lies It took me all this time to finally find The truth behind those baby blue eyes Though it wasn’t easy I finally made up my mind To let the past be the past Set the love I held for you free Cuz this time was my last We'll never be what we used to be Can't believe I wasted all this time This much I've come to learn is true Never again will you be mine But hey its cool….I'm so over you!!!!!
