I Gave You All My Love

I gave you all my love
all you did was cause me pain
I never thought I could rise above
or ever feel the same again.

I was always by your side
but you always turned to someone else
I thought my soul was petrified
but with his every smile it continuously melts.

I couldn't sleep from my grief
all of my hopes were so dim
Now he gives my spirit relief
and I am happy thinking of him.

Your unrequited affection
only beat me to the ground
But he's sweeter than a confection
and he's never going to bring me down!
