I woke up to a memory
of what I once had
a feeling I once felt
now replaced by "soledad"

I remember those times
when you said the three words
the words that I thought
would create my new world

You picked me up when I was broken
I thought you would care
but instead you threw me down
and left me to despair

I woke up to a memory
of the time you said goodbye
how you told me all you said
were nothing if not lies

how you once said you'd keep me
how you once said goodnight
how I thought you would care for me
I thought you'd be my light

I woke up to a memory
of the moments we both shared
both moments good and bad
they were memories beyond compare
