Falling in love with you has only made me cry;
For I see now your love was a lie.

I know, deep down, I must find the strength to take hold of my life.
Only then can I spread my wings and fly.

I have been too soft, too kind, to do what needs to be done.
I changed myself to fit your vision of who I should be, but no longer will I look into the mirror and not recognize me.

We were not meant to be, this is clear to see, now we can both be free.  
No more will there be a you and me.
One day, maybe, true love will come our way; until then I wish you well.
Hate me if you please; no longer will that faze me.

We warmed each other’s hearts for some time; sadly, the flames inevitably died.
Every day we both felt the heat fading away.
Try as we might to rekindle the spark; A new burning flame would not start.

We shall touch no more, we shall kiss no more, and we shall make passionate love no more; because as we see, this love was not meant to be.
