Thank You For Loving Me

In all the days of my life I never knew I could love somebody as much as I love you
You have taught me the right way to love someone A kind and patient love, not 
resenting or cruel

You never stop giving and it’s really made me learn
How a person can give so much and ask for nothing in return
And I know this sounds cliché, but you make me want to be a better person, like 
you
And there’s no one I’d rather share this world with than you

I know it gets hard sometimes when things go the wrong way
But remember I’m always here for you, even when you push me away
I want to be involved in every aspect of your life
I want to see you through the tough times and show you the light

You are the light inside me, the very thing that I live for
It’s you and you alone, Darling, the only one that I adore
I wish I could take all your worries, and make them go away
I wish I could take away your suffering, so you would feel no pain

I’d be glad to do it for you because you have done so much for me
I would gladly die for you, if it were the only way you’d see
Thank you so much, my love, for making a difference in my life
I appreciate your love for me, and am so glad to be in your life

What Happened To Us?

I don’t understand what happened to us I don’t understand what happened to you
How can I believe that you still love me? When you act the way you do

You pushed me away when things got hard
You completely ignored me and put up your guard
We have been through so much together
Why don’t you trust me to make things better?

You never even gave me a chance to try
You locked me out and you made me cry
Even though I’ll always be your friend
I’m sad to see our relationship end

I still had so much love to give
And we still had our whole lives to live
I just hoped that we would do it together
And that our love would last forever

I feel like my heart has turned cold and died
But at the end of the day, At least I can say I tried
I don’t want to give up on us and even more on you
But there’s only so much one person can do

I can tell you over and over that I’ll always be here
But I can’t help it if you don’t really care
I can love you with everything that I have inside
But that only seems to make you run and hide

But you don’t realize that you’re running the wrong way
Come back to me and let me brighten your day
That’s how it used to be
Me for you and you for me

I just want to go back to yesterday
When I didn’t have to beg you to stay
When all I did was lay in your arms
And you kept me safe from a world of harm

Now it’s you who’s hurting me the most
When I’m around you treat me like a ghost
You see me, but you pretend I’m not there
It’s like you wish I would just disappear

I can’t help these feelings that I hold deep inside 
It’s like you just lost interest and got off the ride
But I’m still here waiting, still waiting to see
If you’ll get back on and finish this ride with me

Memories Fade

I hoped by now I would be a pro
At hiding my feelings to put on a show
But then I see you in the haze
 I become oblivious and memories fade

At night as I sink into my bed
Memories of us clutter my head
The sun rises and claims the new day
No dreams last night just thoughts as I lay

I’m off to work on the one forty two
But the LA Port reminds me of you
It’s impossible to forget you. You’re everywhere
As I stare out the window I fight back a tear

I wonder what you’re doing, if you’re thinking of me
But as I wipe my eyes, I know it can’t be
I can’t live another day in this misery
Why doesn’t my heart know what my eyes have seen?

Everyone keeps saying, “You’ll find another”
But that will end the same, so why should I bother
Besides that’s no way to live your life
You’d cause your heart so much strife

There’s only one person who can make it better
All I need to know is that he said, “I miss her”
I’m holding on with all I have just waiting for a sign
Hoping there will come a day I can once again call him mine

A Girl Like You

Yeah you’re broken hearted
So, what else is new?
And no you can’t deny, 
The fool he made out of you

After all the guys and all the lies
I guess you never learned
If you ask for fire and desire
You can count on getting burned

You’ll be better off without him
And girl you know its true
I’m singing you this song 
Cause I was once a girl like you

And just when you think life couldn’t be better
And nothing could go wrong
You find yourself listening 
To another pathetic love song

“How do I live without you” and
“We belong together”
“It’s just a little to late” and
“Always and forever”

You can drown yourself in sad songs
And cry yourself to sleep 
Or you can get yourself back out there
And forget about that creep

You’ll be better off without him
And girl you know its true
I’m singing you this song 
Cause I was once a girl like you

I’m talking from experience 
I’ve played that stupid game
I finally let go and realized
That they’re all the same

Stop trying to figure it out
Because there’s nothing you can do
Stop trying to win him back
Because it’s him who lost not you

You can dream and you can pray
But what you want is miles away
Don’t be fooled by love again
It’s a game you just can’t win

You’ll be better off without him
And girl you know its true
I’m singing you this song 
Cause I was once a girl like you

Yeah I’m singing you this song
Cause I was once a girl like you

Second Chances

You get a lot of second chances in life
Some are more deserving then others
The most important ones, by far
Are made between consoling lovers

Let’s give this one more shot
To really say we tried
Then if it doesn’t work
In that I can confide 

Some are not so lucky
And are left wondering why
What did I do, how can I change
So my next ‘ship wont sail me by

Those of us who are lucky enough
And are given that second chance
Will risk it all to not repeat
That unfortunate circumstance

I definitely consider myself 
To be a ‘lucky one’
I thought that I had lost my love
But I have most certainly won

Just having love back in my life
Is fulfilling in it’s own
But having his love back in my life
Is a feeling I’ve never known

I didn’t realize at first
The gift that God was giving
Even when I wanted to die
He helped me keep on living

And even though I could live without
He knew I didn’t want to
I know I don’t need you in my life
But I can’t stand to be without you

Even though you broke my heart 
And left me in a trance
At least you came back to fix it
And that deserves a second chance

Another Lost Love

My heart hurts and my soul cries out for the one I love
Don’t you hear me calling? Don’t you miss me too?
How could something so great turn into hurt and pain?
You used to be my drug but now you’re the cause
I don’t know what to make of myself now that you’re gone
We had our whole future planned out down to our death
But just like that it slipped through my fingers
Now it’s lost in the sea of hopes and dreams
Just like our love, it’s floating away from the shore
But I believe it will catch a wave back in and crash into us once more

All Your Fault

Even though I miss you everyday
I can feel my love for you dying
All those nights I couldn’t sleep
When I just lay in my bed crying

I have learned to live without you
I guess I made it through
I thought I needed you in my life
But that turned out untrue

It really makes me wonder
How it even got this far
I feel like I don’t know you
And I’ve forgotten who you are

I know you were someone special
Because you made me care
But I’m tired of caring for 
Someone who’s never even there

It was only just a month ago
I was this pathetic wreck
But it made me realize
You can’t love and disrespect

Either you love someone or you don’t
There’s no in between
When you say you love me but need space
I don’t know what you mean

How can you stay away
From someone that you love
When they should be that one thing
You just can’t get enough of

Don’t be surprised 
When you want to come back for more
And I no longer love you
Like the way I did before

You only have yourself to blame
You caused my heart so much pain
I never want to feel that again
I think it’s best we just be friends
