So many people tried to tell me

that to my heart you did not belong

but my pride would not let me listen.

I just knew my heart could not be wrong.

You were the only one that mattered.

With you beside me, I could be strong.

I used to think I’d always love you.

I’d hang on every word you’d say.

I thought nothing could tear us apart.

Now my love for you is washed awaay.

I was such a fool to believe you.

I could never see the light of day.

And your love was what I would live for.

Now my love for you is washed away.

Why did it take me so long to see it?

How could I ever have been so blind?

Why did you take our love for granted?

I was nearly half out of my mind.

I watched you slipping away from me.

What was out there you needed to find?

Our love has become a memory.

And this hurts me more you could know.

It’s my heart that has to let you go.

I used to think I’d always love you.

I’d hang on every word you’d say.

I thought nothing could tear us apart.

Now my love for you is washed away.

I was such a fool to believe you.

I could never see the light of day.

And your love is what I would live for.

Now my love for you is washed away.
