Never Letting You Go
Would you be there for me now
If I needed a friend
Who would love me
Without limitations?
Because
You once told me
"You are my best friend"
Then you let me down.
You turned away from me and tried to act as if
There had never been anything
Between us.
I knew you loved me, though.
I knew you always had
And i knew you always would.
But how could love
Allow one to act like that?
To break another's heart.
Would you be there for me now
If I needed a shoulder to cry on?
Because Once you were
The one causing the tears
To flow from my eyes
And also from my heart
Little did I know
That I was doing
The same to you
You were the one.
The one I looked up to.
The one I loved more than
Life itself.
And then all of that
Crashed down upon me.
The way I had felt for you
Became a ton of bricks
Weighing on my heart.
I couldn't let you go
Though you tried to walk
Out of my life.
And deep down
I hoped that you
Couldn't have truly forgotten
Our bond.
Now I look back at those days.
The days of agony
The days I spent
Not wanting to do anything
But lay in my room and cry
And I think
"Why should I take you back?"
Why When you caused me so much
Pain and heartbreak
When all I had ever shown you
Was love
Now i understand
Why you tried
To walk out of my life.
I had hurt you in a way
I had never intended:
I loved another boy.
I never saw
That when you said
"I love you"
You meant
"I wish i could hold you in my arms and never let you go"
I never saw
The pain in your eyes
When you saw me
Walking hand in hand
With someone other than you
When all you had dreamt of
Was being the one
To walk with my hand in yours.
I crushed you
But never stopped loving you
You crushed me
But always In the back of your mind
Was the thought of me
And how you felt.
For over a year
We both were torn
Our hearts ripped to shreds
Whenever we were forced
To cross each others paths.
But when more pain hit me
And the boy I had loved
Crushed me
The way I had crushed you,
You were there.
Now I know.
You are my best friend
When I need someone
To love me without limits.
You are a shoulder to cry on
When I feel as if I can't hold the tears in
Any longer.
When life tore us apart
Love brought us back together.
And now
We are looking
Towards the future
Hand in hand.
You are holding me
And I am never letting you go.
