Without You

When I lost you
is when I loved you
I didn't see just what I had
now the love I feel is bad
when we were together
everything about your love 
was good
I didn't understand
so I lost what I didn't know existed
I now probably love alone
because you're hurt
I'm here and you're gone
and our timing was off
because I was ready to love
right after you were ready           to leave
and now I wait and wonder
about our roads
because in our past
I just couldn't believe
