It took me some time
But now I realize
I'm much better alone
Than I was in your eyes
For years I had thought
All that I wanted was you
And to get what I wanted
Seemed too good to be true
I disregarded the warnings
My brain sent to me
My heart was in charge
A blind heart, you see
So when the time came
For us to be one
My wait it was over
It was finally done.
Life it was perfect
I couldn't believe
How should I have known
It was only a reprieve
But quickly does milk sour
When left in the heat
Any passion you had
You let quicky retreat
My deep seeded devotion
For you I kept sound
I kept a glimmer of hope
You'd soon come around
How foolish was I
To put faith in you
I thought it before
Things were too good to be true
Only so much deception
Can one devoted man take
It was time to part ways
But my heart it did break
I was lied to and cheated
By the one who I trusted
Then left on my own
To feel battered and busted
It took me some time
But now I realize
I'm much better alone
Than I was in your eyes
