Never Should Have Let You Go

I never should have let you go Now when I try to be alone With someone other than you I look into their eyes There is no feeling that is true When we were together You were always there True love from the very start But I never appreciated you The way that I needed to No matter what I did You always understood Not worrying if you should These things I chose to do No matter what I said the reason For some of the things done Many times it was not true Still you did not run When I was hurt Many would not have stayed But you just laid By my side Never thinking About the world outside As I recovered Thinking I wanted to be on my own Again you understood And stayed by my side I thought I wanted to be alone I made this world my own In my mind trying to decide If I cared about my family, my friends Myself, and even you Again I would show I did not appreciate The things that you do I left your true love for false friends Friends that did not stay Your love is a love that I can never find again Now you are so far away When I saw you with someone else I acted like I did not care But inside I was hiding every tear After being on my own I realize how hard it is to be alone I never should have let you go I will always love you
