I remember holding his hand
Through the store
So today when I took someone else there
I waited in the car
I remember tagging along with him
After work to the gym
So I always find ways to avoid
Going there again
You’d never go with me
To the football games
When you used to go with her
Because it wouldn’t have been the same
Now I see things from your point of view
He will never be him,
I’ll never be her –
They’ll never be you.
As the days passed by
Happiness fading, in and out
Nothing could stay, nothing would –
Unless she loved herself.
You said something
During our final goodbye
It made me think –
Made me understand why
Why we would always fly
But never land
Why you’d break each promise
Now I understand
See, loyalty
It isn’t your thing
And commitment?
It burns you and stings
And the words you said
Made my eyes open up
You spoke the truth
And called your own bluff
And the words you said
Showed me the truth
The man I knew –
He wasn’t you
The truth you spoke
Should have broken my heart
But I already knew
And I already broke
I see you for you –
The real man, the real guy
Now I understand
Once bitten, twice shy.
Three steps to a successful, fulfilling life:
Why settle for mediocre when you deserve something great? You are the biggest hurdle in your own life. Leap ahead, set goals and understand your boundaries – never, ever settle. Life is too incredibly short.

She realized
You let her go
More than you held her
She realized
You had sex
More than you ever made love
She realized
You were gone
Before you even got there
She realized
What isn’t here
Never really was.
