When we met you were 21
We fell for each other almost at once
I wasnt much older only 23
Remember when we knocked over that cherry blossom tree?
We made plans for a future so bright
You were working ******* us i never put up the fight
Your smile would take me away to cloud nine
I still couldnt believe that you were all mine
I messed up yes i know it was me
Dont blame yourself for wanting to be free

If i had known the last time we kissed would be the last
I wouldn’t have separated from you so fast
That last hug you gave me was so long ago
If i would have known i would have never let go
The last time you looked at me with loving eyes
Couldn’t have been too long ago but man how times flies
The last time you held me and brought me in close
Seems so far away, now who’ll warm up your toes?
The last time you told me I love you i cant even remember
But then again since you ended it, its all been a blur

It takes 2 to tango, thats what they say
So why did i think you doing all the work would be ok?
You did so much for us its crazy to think
That with all that was done you did not make a stink
You would take care of the kids, clean up the house
Also working full time you were the perfect spouse
I was also working and going to college
But even at that i know i took advantage
I did not want to help i was always “too tired”
I know now it was just my time you desired
Can you help with this? Can you help with that?
Please just leave me alone i just want to relax
Can we go to this place? Can we go to that one?
No. No. No. and now thats why youre gone.

We were supposed to be happily ever after
But what are you supposed to do when the laughter,
Doesnt exist anymore
When she tells you that those feelings that once existed
With the bad stuff you did got all twisted
Shes not in love with you anymore
Your heart just drops to the floor
All those times you made her cry
You dont deserve one last try
Shes been dealing with these feelings for years
Wants to be alone and focus on her career
What can you do but let go?
If you really do love her

A beautiful mermaid appeared out of the blue
We fell in love quick, hers was always so true
She wanted to swim as far away as we could
I said “no i dont think that we should”
She was so sad but she hid it so good
I thought we were happy, i misunderstood
She wanted some friends some of them men
Out of my mouth came the word “No” again
Still she put on a face and thought she was happy
She, herself didnt even know she was feeling so ******
In a figurative fishnet she felt herself caught
She felt like her tail had been tied in a knot
She couldnt swim without me knowing where
All she wanted to do was get some fresh air
She had no love for him anymore but never went astray
She had had enough she had to get away
I lost the most beautiful thing in the ocean
Dont wait until its too late to show your devotion

I wish you disgusted me
Just to make it easier to let you be
The fact that i love you is whats making this hard
But i understand, you gotta follow your heart
You make it so hard with those beautiful eyes
But i understand because of the lies
Even now youre always so kind
I just wish that i knew whats going on in that mind
I know its too late and no more will i beg
This happening takes me down a peg
I never believed i was too good for you
As a matter of fact thats very untrue
I was the one that reached much too high
I wish i could pinpoint where it all went awry
Maybe thats why i thought that you would get stolen
Maybe some guy named Brock with muscles so swollen
Yes i wish i disliked you as a matter of fact hated
To leave you alone and my heart so vacated
