His arms reached around me,
But mine didn't come around in return,
I just sighed and restrained as he pressed his shoulder to my face,
Once I got free, He just stared,
As though he expected some emotional response,
But no, not I,
With a turn of the heel,
There I go, Down the ***** sidewalk with not even a sigh,
I felt eyes burning through my back,
But I had no need to turn around.
I truly believe some people just aren't meant for other people,
Some people are just suppose to teach certain lessons and move on,
I think I might be one of those people,
I don't desire to stay in one place long,
Maybe that's the lesson I am,
That good things travel,
Or that you can't tame the wild.

You always have a way of ******* everything up,
I've successfully excluded you from my life for years,
The choice had to be made at the time;
You're not a kind man,
You have no compassion,
And I've always known in my heart,
That you're no good for anyone,
Especially not me.
I've always had to pick up the lose pieces from the damage you left,
You never want to talk about that,
I've been trying so hard to forget all these hard times,
And now I'm better off since your not here.
I don't want to fight, cause I know I'm right,
You don't change,
You just hurt,
I can't have that in my life,
So I'm going onward with my travel,
You can just stay here.

You could slap me across the face,
Knock me to the floor,
Scream into my ear,
Say things that strikes me right to the core,
And all I would do,
Is just stand up and thank you for your time.

I didn't feel the flutter of your feet,
I didn't hear your cry,
But I felt you,
Our hearts shared the same chords,
You are the only one who's ever touched my soul,
I don't know how this happened,
It breaks my heart to know I'll never see your sweet face,
Or hear you sweet little laugh,
I can only imagine your beauty,
Or the way you'd play with your daddy,
I don't know why things happened like this,
My heart will never beat in the right tune,
Because I never got to have you.

Broken windows,
All this glass,
Some things don't just fix on their own,
Ripped skin, tired looks,
I'm so tired of feeling like this,
Where up is just a place where you look from down,
I just thought for once you'd be around,
I'm laying in bed wondering,
If I'll ever get back up,
I've just had a eighty hour week,
I guess it's what I have to do,
But I still made time for you,
I can't stop thinking about how
You're breaking my heart,
But I guess it's something you need to do,
I guess I can't blame you.

You're going to do great things, You're going to love hard,
You're going to have people screaming your name,
You're going to drink beer and shoot the bull with your friends,
They're going to ask about the girl in your songs,
And for the first time in a long time you'll feel something,
You'll think about me.
Every night after a few drinks, You'll stumble on stage with your cigarette,
Telling your fans, this one goes out to the one who got away,
The one that I should of chased,
The one that has my heart every day,
The one that I fall asleep in the memories,
And on that stage you'll feel the pain,
Of missing me.

Let's make a bet,
I bet this won't last,
I'll try to give you everything you've never had,
I'll go on about giving my heart away,
But at the end of the day I won't cry,
I won't care at all,
It'll be like I never fell hard,
That's probably cause I never did,
You're just another name on my list.
