If
only she knew...
I
gave U everything...everything U need
gave
U sweat, blood & tears
all
I asked in return was for your love to make me whole
and
as long as we lived you'd never want another
as
I stand here alone at the altar, it's going on an hour
still
U haven't shown, wish I could blame it on the weather
sunshine
is pouring through every window
but
my heart is overcast and I'm the last 2 one to know
all
along we weren't meant to be somehow I couldn't see
we
were as similar as night and day
deep
down, where truth resides I knew U weren't going to stay
knowing
this couldn't stop what I was feeling
as
time passed I had myself believing my love was enough for two
always
somehow knowing, inevitably U would take your love away
leaving
me a broken man without your love
If
I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing
that
may sound surprising to some but what is the purpose 2 life
if
not to be loved by the woman of your dreams
even
if it's 4 a time the experience would've been worthwhile
too
many times we sleepwalk through this life unaffected by life's great
and
only in retrospect...
we
realized what we've missed but then the opportunity is gone
the
one you've loved is dead and gone
hopefully
looking on from the heaven above
on
the right hand of the heavenly father
If
only U could tell she's the only one you've ever loved
that
not a day goes by her memory doesn't come to mind
every
word you've ever written is a memorial to her
every
tear cry is in remembrance of her
if
only she knew...if only she knew
even
on your deathbed, the grim reaper hovering over your shoulders
the
pain of living causes U such excruciating pain
she's
still your only one desire...after all this time
all
U have to do is close your eyes, see her smile
after all this time U love her still...after all this time.
