I remember it just like it was the other day.
We used to vibe and ride together.
I was hoping that we’d last forever.
I wrote so many love letters addressed to you.
I was there for you through it all.
I’d never see you fall.
All you had to do was call on me,
and I would come running to rescue you.
You know that I was devoted to you.
There was no way that I’d abandoned you.
‘Cause the love you instilled in me
was the most fulfilling thing that I had
ever experienced, feeling you indefinitely.

It’s hard to believe that our love
came to an end, shattering me within.
I tried to pretend that it wasn’t over,
but I knew in my soul that you had gone.
I couldn’t be strong.
Everything was so wrong.
There were days when I stood by the phone,
waiting for your call,
longing for your love again,
still keeping the faith that
you’d come back and stay
and everything would be great.
But I was hurting myself more
by investing in a fallen flame.
Still my heart kept searching
for you in the dark,
wishing that everything had changed
and we could be in love for eternity.
