           Let Go
How could you do this to me?
Just all of a sudden,
Out of the blue.

You turned your head,
You walked away.

You blocked me out,
Not letting me inside,
Not letting me see the real you,
You always tried to hide.

I tried to help,
I loved you so much,
But you turned away,
You ran from my touch.

My touch could have saved you,
Had you let me inside,
Let me try and help,
Instead of pushing me aside.

If you only could have seen,
My feelings for you were real,
I didn't try and hide,
I wanted to let you inside.

But it's too late now,
Now you're gone,
You left without a trace.

All I want to do is see your face,
To kiss you once more,
To hold you close,
And never let go.

I loved you with all my heart and soul,
But you betrayed me,
Now,
It's time for me to let go.

"One day you'll love me as I onced loved you,
one day you'll cry over me, as I once cried over
you, and one day you'll want me but I won't want you.
