You looked my way today
For the very first time
A cold shiver rode down my spine
My knees went weak
It was only a glance
With one look you changed my steady stance
I know you saw me
I know you hate me
My eyes are drowning again
My heart is not yet free
Your face said it all
As you left I was about to fall
My heart you buried
And to think I thought we would get married
On that last day I almost knew
I almost knew we were through
You pushed me away from your side
With that you stole my pride
You barely held my hand that day
The same day I begged you’d stay
The same day it was hours I cried
That day I got my first scar
My heart was broken
The pieces thrown far
Why did you stare in such a way?
A way I didnt know if i wished you'd go away
Or stay
I know now though
I wish you didn’t go
I wish you didn't leave me here
Broken
Hiding in fear
I never knew this was truly a place
A place I live in your disgrace
Our whole life we could have had to share
Now I crumble in your hurtful stare
There is a town of broken hearts
You dropped me off there
Where
O where did you go
I loved my life with you
But away with my heart you throw
Goodbye my love
My teary eyes
Filled with cries
Cries of hope you will return
My heart is one victim of the heartless burn
I know you won’t
I know you hope I don't
So why did you stare at me today?
You have caused my heart yet another affray
And you left me here
Like a broken stray
Here I stay
You watched me stumble and fall
You watched as I tried to crawl
Back home
To you
To where and when my heart was true
