I Lost You

Carolyn, I've tried and I've tried to be a better man. Someone you can relate to honest and calm.

Succeed I will as it's the only way up from this place so dark and full of bad luck.....

Timing it seems is my Achilles heal, loving you allowed me to feel. I felt what it was to have a semblance of calm that allowed me to be the best that I am. 

Now you're gone, another you love and I'm left wondering just what have I done. 
I look for everywhere, you're nowhere to be found I walk the same earth but you're hand in hand with another, not me but looking at him I'm lost my love and I've lost you Carolyn. 

If time passes by and you see me around, smile, walk on... I'll make no sound, but inside I'll be screaming at the top of my voice 'Carolyn, carolyn make me your choice', but you'll never know the words that I say as you've moved on and I've moved away.. time it heals and you heal with time, Carolyn baby you'll do just fine, me on the outside broken but healing will live thru my life with a real lack of feeling, for you see when I said I'd love you forever.... I thought my love would hold us together, but apart we are and you don't trust me, I love you so I set you free.... be happy my love smile and cry... live a full life because I'll love you till I die.... your name it will the last from my lips... as I draw my last breath and I'm broken ,.... in bits....
