If You Never Try

Sometimes everything is a lie The way he touched you Kissed you and ran his fingers in your hair Sometimes your heart breaks It's all in despair He walks away You bite your lip to hold it back Tears form in your eyes Cloud your vision and you wonder why Standing alone on the street in the rain Wondering why they're all the same They tell you what you want to hear Get what they want and take it all back You gave it your heart From the very start Just to see it spit back Cry, and cry You loose yourself in sadness Try to find a reason why Get hung up in the past But not so fast If you let yourself cry for too long Your eyes will cloud You won't see anything around Your other half could be standing there Arms open wide But you will never find out If you never try
