Life Will Go On

when you left 
without saying goodbye 
I didnt know what to do with myself 
whether or not to cry 

You promised me a life time of happiness 
a bright future 
and that you would be here tomorrow
But all you could give me was a life time of sorrow

I waited around, 
to hear your voice 
to see your face 
but then you disapeared off the earth without a trace 

I spent days crying 
months worrying 
and a year trying to be who you wanted me to be 
improving my life and being constantly happy 

And now that girl, 
the one i was worried about being your wife
you arent together anymore 
and im wondering whether or not she will stay in your life 

But i know one thing for sure, 
i was waiting for that day when you broke up with her 
thinking that i would be happy 
but here i am in sorrow 
because i cant be there with you tommorrow 
to make you laugh 
to make you smile 
and being a shoulder to cry on. 

I was happy because you were happy with her, 
now that shes gone 
im going to be strong 
for you 
and love you the way you deserve
