I Would Have Loved You In a Different Life
I would have loved you in a different life.
No I am sorry I meant I would have loved you right.
you were everything I could have dreamed of.
I did not want to believe it but I was in love.
But, how could I have been I treated you so bad.
Not realizing the magic that we had.
You were my best friend turned love but, that was not enough.
I handled your heart entirely to rough.
The crazy part is most of the terrible things I did, you didn't even know;
and I didn't feel the effects of the self caused damage until you let me go.
In a very short time you became my everything but, then my everything walked away.
You left so fast that I couldn't tell you what I wanted to say.
Things like I love you, I'm sorry, and, please don't let me go.
You meant the world to me I just though that you should know.
I guess it was the timing because I could have loved you In a different life.
No I am sorry I meant I could have love you right.
Now I only love you in my dreams.
The brightest part of my memories, like a big beautiful beam.
