Time Has Not Changed My Circumstance

I bled a river of crimson red for many years,
It's said with time one's broken heart will heal.
My great love leaving me was one of my fears,
I bled a river of crimson red for many years.
We had a love, filled with much passion and zeal.
He left, heart is still raw, I've shed a lot of tears;
I bled a river of crimson red for many years,
It's said with time one's broken heart will heal.
