How do you recover From a past love you discover Never went away? Even though you say You’ve gotten over it Because you can’t admit What your actions reveal Your heart didn’t heal
A heart’s a fragile thing And the joy that it can bring Can be laced with sadness too That some don’t make it through To the other side So their feelings are denied It’s easier to pretend That they’ve reached the end
So you think that it has past You’ve come though it at last But that’s merely an illusion That gives you the false conclusion That you recovered fast And what’s past is really past But the dye still has been cast
How do you recover From a past love you discover Never went away? Even though you say You’ve gotten over it Because you can’t admit What your actions reveal Your heart didn’t heal
