The curtains of my dreams pulled back
To show the life I should have led
Through the trees I ran from you
To try and ease the pain I felt

The times you said you loved me
Were countless that much is true
But when you came last night
You brought with you someone new

Her curly hair and pale skin
Just broke my heart to see
And then you said those unchanging words
That left you far from me

You said she was your one, your all, your eternity
I felt the trickal of salty tears run down my sorrowful face
And felt the agonized cries that came from my shattered heart

Days would pass then months then years
Yet still my heart would fail to mend

So now I sit by my window waiting for a rescue
That will never come
