Dear CM
I want to tell you a story
of the ones that hurt me before
And maybe that will help my uncover
Why I thought you were different from the others.
I'll start with the one
Who had the most perfect blue eyes
The kind that left you trembling
And always with a smile.
He left me waiting for too long,
Kept me dangling,
Then let me fall.
I fell too soon
And with a crash
I wrecked it all.
The one after that
Restored my faith
In how you should feel
When love comes your way.
He kept me close,
Gently kissed my eyes,
Never made me cry
But I had to let him go
And now he loves someone else
The way he loved me that month.
Not long after,
A hockey player with family problems
Somehow captured my attention
And took me out to have some fun.
Things were good for a while,
But we both messed up
And he stopped answering my calls.
More than a year later
A country boy from the middle of nowhere
Took my heart from the first second.
A week went by
And I think he realized
That I wasn't close to what he really wanted.
He got rid of me so fast
Broke every single promise.
Then there was you.
At first, you tried to pick me up
Convinced me that I was great
I don't know what changed,
Now all I want is a chance.
I saw something different in you
That I know you never saw.
And maybe that scares you
And that's why you ran away so fast and far.
