I Never Got To
I never got to love you.
Not the way I wanted to.
I never got the chance to wake up in your arms and see just how you start your day.
Because way too soon you took you away.
All you gave me was pieces and parts.
Little fragments of a broken heart.
You never gave me the chance to fit together the pieces of you.
I came prepared with tape and glue.
You never let me show you what its like to have real love, a real relationship.
Because before our love could sail off coast, you abandoned ship.
We spent sweet time that I’ll always be thankful for.
But truth be told I am still left, wanting more.
I wanted to fit your pieces with mine like a giant puzzle meant to fit.
But I’ll never get the chance because on us you decided to quit.
I wanted to see what we could be like as a whole.
But you ran, you left, you wont let me, you let go.
Weren’t you curious about us, didn’t you want to see where this would lead?
Or are you still running from your last relationship, still waiting to be freed?
If you ever want to change your mind and see this relationship through.
I’ll be waiting right here with my tape and my glue.
