Darling, I thought you were the one
The one with whom I’d start anew
I could not help it but to see
Excitement that surrounded you

Darling, perhaps you couldn’t tell
That I had loved you in my way
I managed to convince myself
That what we had would be okay

Darling, I thought you were the one
The one who would not be the same
But I was wrong and watched you leave
And felt those feelings all again

Darling, you know you broke my heart
But I stayed strong ‘til you were gone
And though my eyes filled up with tears
I told my heart to carry on

Darling, I thought you were the one
The one with whom I could pretend
That love was not as simple as
Either forever or the end

Darling, I thought, but I was wrong
The two of us weren’t meant to be
We were both caught up in a trance
To someone else’s melody.
