Like a river flowing by
That's how the tears fell from my eyes
You hurt me so bad, in so many ways
I worked for your love like a penniless slave
My days are lonely, my nights are cold
Just like a kingdom on empty throne
You looked at me while I walk away
We both knew there is nothing left to say
But old habits die hard
And temptation is begging me to let you stay
I could take you in my arms
And never let you go
I can fall in love again
But you'd only hurt me more
My heart is broken, I'm lost in the dark
All that surrounds me is silence, cold and hard
But with time to heal, I'll mend these shards
From this day forth, you'll hurt me no more
I can finally spread my wings
and let my lonely Heart soar
So I thank you and the father above
For he kept me through it all
And you helped me learn that there's much more to life than love.
