It Took My Breath Away

It took my breath away When I saw you And since then all my thoughts Have been about you It took my breath away When you first smiled at me And since then all my smiles Have been for you It took my breath away When you told me that you love me And since then my heart has been Full of love for you It took my breath away When I realized I wasn’t your first priority And since then I tried my best To mean more to you It took my breath away When my attempts at getting closer led to fights And since then I’ve doubted every action of mine And every word; good or bad It took my breath away When you said you didn’t want me in your life And since, every waking second I’ve missed you It took my breath away When I said my final goodbye And since then my heart has broken into a million pieces And every piece of it I’ve dedicated to you

This is so so sad, Majoj!! I think you did a very good job with it and I enjoy the repetition of the first line.
