Relationship Built On Ruins

They say time heals all wounds And if that sayings true How come time hasn't repaired The damage left by you. A relationship built on ruins It was never meant to last But often at times I think That it went by way too fast. If life came with a rewind button I'd use it just to see you Make every second together count I'd never want to leave you. But when that time was over I'd fast forward back to now Think about where we went wrong And quietly ask myself how.
