You grabbed my hand and you led me away.
You showed me a way to get through the day
You lifted me up and you made me okay.
You told me the hurt would fade away.

I stayed there with you,
Until you mentioned her.
But that didn't last.
That week was a blur.

It was back to just us.
But no. Not really.
Because my heart still ached
For the boy who made me silly.

A month ticked by,
And your feelings grew
Toward a poor broken girl
With a heart so askew.

Then one day he came back.
Said he'd made a mistake
And my heart straightened up.
He was a risk I would take.

It must of felt
Like I picked him over you.
But there was never a choice.
Not with a heart so blue.

I fell in love.
And you're the one I told.
But when you heard those three words
In your heart grew a hole.

You waited for me
To fill it again,
But you shouldn't have waited
For his love to end.

That day came.
And you had been waiting.
But when I realized this much,
I started debating.

How could you
Escape the hole
With me so close
Creating the pull?

So I said we couldn't
Be as close as we were
And you ended it completely
To get over me for sure.

And we hugged,
As we cried,
And whispered
Goodbyes

It took a toll,
Being apart,
As you took time
To fix your heart.

Today you came back.
You said it was done.
We could be friends,
And finally have fun.

But I can't forget
The hurt that I caused
To a heart so strong
That found me so lost.
The world, the world is mine, but you're not there.
