I guess I just never wanted to believe that you were
Not enough.
Willing to sacrifice whatever I needed to
Just to hold your hand
Watch you smile
Watch you dream
Watch you fall
And help you back up again.
Even when the days were lonely
And my heart ached for who you were
Yesterday,
I still believed we could find our way
Together
That it was enough somehow
To love you with all I had.
That you could be loved back to life,
Loved back to my arms,
Loved back to happiness.
I thought if I just stood by,
Sometimes in the shadows,
If I just believed in you and me,
You’d turn around one day and
See me
Standing there
Waiting for you
To believe in us again.
I still looked at you and saw
The boy
That shared my dreams
The boy
Intoxicated in my presence
The boy
Who tried to run but always found
That the path
Led right back
To me.
I’ll never fully understand
How you could
Go
How you could leave
The one person who would do
Anything for you…
Anything for your happiness.
The girl who would have given it all up
Just to see you smile.
So I let you go,
Like the Giving Tree,
My one last gift to Thee.
And my tired heart broke in two,
Like you’d never know,
And that’s when he walked in.
And I can’t believe that there’s someone
Like him in this world…
I never thought that there could be someone out there
Who would be
Just Enough….
Someone happy just to
Hold my hand,
Watch me smile,
Watch me dream,
Watch me fall,
And help me back up again....
