Heartfelt Pain

All my life you were what I thought I needed,
And now I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

I know I belonged there, in your arms,
But I guess it just wasn't enough.

You soothed my fears and calmed my tears,
Said you'd never leave me but where are you now?

Goodbyes are all I have ever known,
Love them and leave them has become my life.

Then you came around and I knew,
Things would never be the same again.

I guess only Time would tell whether
Or not I could trust in you when you said you loved me.

I fell fast for you and now I feel
Way too much, it hurts that you said goodbye.

And I guess that it's really over,
Nothing I can say or do to rewind time.

Yet somehow I can't regret,
All I can do is be on my way and let go......
