Steps
Be mine is what i should have said
The first step as you turned to walkaway
I should have pulled the earth from beneath your feet
But still you took another
The distance between us growing now
I acted out of love
The pain i feel from losing you i brought upon myself
From deep inside i knew that you deserved another
One last look a picture in my mind, then turned my head away
The man who gave his love away, drowning from the inside
With tears i never shed.
