Forget the times he walked by, Forget the times he made you cry, <br /> Forget the times he spoke your name, Remember now your not the same. <br /> Forget the times he held your hand, Forget the sweet things if you can,<br /> Forget the times &amp; Don&#039;t pretend, Remember now he&#039;s just your friend.

I’d write if I had something to write about
I’d sing if I had any music
I’d laugh if anything was ever funny
I’d be happy if I wasn’t so depressed
I’m sad because life isn’t how I want it
I almost gave up, but I put down the blade

All Because Of you

I’ll write because you are my inspiration
I’ll sing because you gave me my beautiful music
I’ll laugh because you are my best joker
I’ll be happy because you are my life
I’m enlightened because you are my sunshine
I’m still here because you never gave up on me

I’m alive, happy, in love
All Because Of You
