Love: The ups and downs
Years ago our forbidden love commenced, and I remember it so clearly,
I decided to give my heart to the one that I now hold so dearly,
It happened so perfectly, it made my whole life worth while,
I gazed into your heavenly eyes shadowed by your smile,
I immediately gave my self to you,
And from that moment on I knew it to be true,
The two of us forever, nothing to break us apart,
We were so strong, so fearless, so in love, connected by the heart
And true love it was, with a bond that could last forever
Nothing to sever out hearts connected beyond measure
I love everything about you, sexy body to your soft hair
The way you wear it down, with beautiful curls flowing everywhere
The scent of you perfume, is enough to drive me wild
The way you dress, the way you laugh, and go the extra mile
We did everything together, long walks just holding hands
Candle lit dinners and romancing, with you life was never bland
But that's when the road got bumpy and took another turn,
You started acting shitty but I didn't wanna learn,
I stayed and we fought time and time again,
What happened to our love without an end?
I'd always forgive you an give it another try,
But things just got worse and our love began to die,
I never had the courage to stand my ground and end it all
So I withstood the pain and catered to your beck and call
But its over now and whose to blame?
It was just the last straw when you called me by her name
I thought your love was gone, that you had nothing left for me
You never said good things, like that we were meant to be
Maybe you thought you didn't have to, because you thought I already knew
But compliments can’t be over used, especially when they come from you
I didn't know what to do, this complication was hard to work with
So I started to ignore you to, waiting for your love to resurface
But you took it the wrong way, we always fought when I was home
Spent extra hours working at my office, jus to avoid more
Confrontations were naturl, always expected them to happen
But we should have talked it through, not let our relationship dampen
Its all gone , and I cant believe its true,
Iv'e lost the will to live now that the one im with isn't you
My nights are lonely and sleepless at times,
Cuz I cant stop thinking of the times that you were mine
And how I long to have you back, because hes just not the same,
All you gave me he lacks and I just awake calling out your name
And the tears wont stop, so I reach for tha bottle and down a bit,
Lying on the ground, whiskey on my breath, the memories still won't quit
Curled up in a ball, you still appear so clear, so vibrant, so alive
I call to you but nothing's what I hear, since it's all in my mind,
And that is what kills me, because this is how I pass my time,
Wishing an praying to have you back, But at the same time I know it was never real,
But I can't stop my love and the way I still feel,
I'm crying out to you in every thought that's running through my head,
Please save me baby, take me back to you, I feel so dead,
Life on my own was harsh, fresh start, no loving remarks
After our part, I was afraid of being alone in the dark
No one to hold onto, lying in bed in somber remorse
My insides tearing up, from lack of internal support
Life wasn’t perfect with you, but everyone has their problems
Life is worse without you, we can find a way to resolve them
Strong on the outside, I hold my emotions deep within
Embarrassed to show that I could have real weaknesses
Every day is just the same, nothing too look forward to
I need you now more than ever, and that’s the honest truth
I feel I need a girlfriend, but no others compares with you
I’m on the rebound, but I just can’t stop loving you
What does she have? Was it all my fault? Please tell me now!
What did I do to make you go to her? I want you again, but how?
Who is that guy I saw you with? Do you really love him too?
I can’t help but feel jealous, not able to hold onto you
No matter how long it's been I still want you everyday,
I just to see you again and have the pain go away,
Because I still care for you, and that love is here to stay,
And your there in the darkness, your face haunts my dreams,
And I'm reaching out for you, only to find it's not what it seems,
Why are you gone? And romancing with her?
While I'm left here cold and alone, to shake and shudder,
So I'm looking for a superficial way to rid me of the stress,
Something that won't let me feel scared and depressed,
Other men, alcohol, all temporary cures,
Drowning away the losses and all the agony I must endure,
I can't take it anymore! Why can't I know how he feels?
FUCK IT!
These are just hands that fate deals…
I couldn’t take it anymore, I just had to talk to you again
If not to get back together, then at least to just be friends
I need you in my life, you such a very important part of me
The cups half full when your around, and without you it’s half empty
The passion we used to feel, is replaced with a lonely void
I need that chasm filled, by your presence, make a choice
I promise I can change, Never take you for granted
Never expect you to understand, never demand it
I’ll be open with my feelings, tell you I love you every day
My mind is already made up, So what do you say?
We can give it another try, Nothing is always easy in the end
Cause even beautiful flowers, have to be watered now and then
The day you called me again was the best day of my life,
I was over come with joy and it took away the strife
Hearing your sweet voice again, I felt alive for the first time in months,
With you here by my side once more there's no more hurt, and crazy stunts,
I'm myself again, because without you I was missing a crucial part,
I was missing much more than just a man, I was missing my heart,
And now that I have you back I'll cherish you forever,
Since now I know for sure we're meant to be together,
Because everyone has their shinning moment once in life, no matter who you are,
But me, I'm living in my moment, because with you I am a star,
And your more than my lover, you're my true best friend,
I'm so glad baby… the flowers are growing again,
We're starting over fresh, starting anew,
Because when we were separate I realized my one and only, and baby it's YOU
Its true, you don’t realize how important something is until it’s gone
It’s jus not the same without you…my life was dusk with no dawn
No light to guide me, feelings of pure emptiness inside me
Never again will I give you a reason to despise me
But now we’re back together, and I’ll try my very hardest
To convert our many problems, into beauty like an artist
Contemplating our differences, finding ways to fix them
Whenever you talk, darling I’ll always be here to listen
I’m interested in your life, and I want to know about your life
It was hard before to show it, I didn’t ignore you just to spite
We are one once more, I hold you, love you in my grasp
Spending every day together, like it was our last.
