You Promised Me Forever

Staring at this picture of you,
Remembering how hard I tried.
Thinking about what went wrong,
And wondering why you lied.

You said we would be alright,
You told me things would be fine,
But nothing worked out right,
And we ran out of time.

So don’t tell me time will heal,
And don’t say I’ll be okay.
Don’t tell me I’ll move on,
It doesn’t feel that way.
They say it is their loss,
But that’s just what they say.
You promised me forever,
And then walked away.

Can’t believe the mess I’m in,
How did I get this way?
Things have gone from bad to worse,
Since you went away.

I always relied on you,
To help me get through.
Trapped under the wreckage left,
So heavy, I can’t move.

So don’t tell me time will heal,
And don’t say I’ll be okay.
Don’t tell me I’ll move on,
It doesn’t feel that way.
They say it is their loss,
But that’s just what they say.
You promised me forever,
And then walked away.

Never knew how you felt,
I never had a clue.
I never got to say goodbye,
If only I knew.

And I can’t explain,
How it feels to lose my friend,
Waiting here for better days,
I can’t go through this again.

So don’t tell me time will heal,
And don’t say I’ll be okay.
Don’t tell me I’ll move on,
It doesn’t feel that way.
They say it is their loss,
But that’s just what they say.
You promised me forever,
And then walked away.

I might never understand,
Why you had to go.
I wonder what I did wrong,
And I may never know.

So I’ll wait just in case you call,
Check my messages, check the time,
And sit by our front door,
In case you drop by.

So don’t tell me time will heal,
And don’t say I’ll be okay.
Don’t tell me I’ll move on,
It doesn’t feel that way.
They say it is their loss,
But that’s just what they say.
You promised me forever,
And then walked away.
