A kiss from you took my breath away
And where are you now?
You’ve gone astray
You’ve left me here alone
In a small, miserable town
Left with nothing but a frown
I wish I’d never known you
You took my smile away
I wish I’d never loved you
For all you did was take and run away
In a matter of seconds
My love turned to indifference
I’m left here without a means of existence
I’m hurting badly
But you’re too blinded to see
The promises you’d broken to me
Every time you touched me
Every embrace we shared
Was just another lie
Of how much you didn’t care
I’m sure you’ve replaced me now
In your heart and in your mind
How foolish was I to truly believe
I was your only valentine
Was it all an act?
Every time we that held hands
Or made love?
Was it a clever ruse?
Did you mean to leave me
Broken and abused?
When you said “I love you”
Did you mean a single word?
Or was the idea of loving me
Something so absurd?
You cut me very deeply
Nothing will stop the pain
Every new drop of crimson blood
I’ll bleed until you leave my brain
The saddest thing of all
Is that I cannot stop loving you
Try as I might to fight this affliction
You have brought upon me
I still miss sleeping next to you
Feeling your breath upon my neck
And your lips across my cheek
Why won’t you let me be?
Why did you take my piece of mind
So far away from me?
