I WAITED FOR YOU

 

BUT YOU NEVER CAME

 

I PASSED IT OFF

 

AS JUST A GAME

 

THAT YOU WON FOR NOW

 

YOU SEEMED SO KEEN

 

WHEN WE SAID GOODBYE

 

YOU KISSED MY CHEEK SO SWEETLY

 

 

 

THERE WE WERE  DANCING SLOW

 

I HEARD YOU SAY

 

DON'T LET ME GO

 

I WHISPERED IN YOUR EAR

 

MADE MY INTENTIONS CLEAR

 

SO YOU WOULD KNOW

 

HOW MUCH I WANTED YOU 

YOU MOVED SO CLOSE

THEN MOVED AWAY

SAID YOU HAD TO GO

AND WE COULD HAVE TOMORROW

I COULD OF CARED LESS  BUT THAT'S NOT ME

I WONDERED I WAITED

TRIED TO MAKE SENSE OF IT ALL

YOU FADED AWAY IN TIME

BUT YOU TOOK THE REASONS WHY

WITH YOU

I WOULDN'T MIND SO MUCH

BUT WAS IT ME OR YOU

A STORM I NEVER KNEW

YOU HID INSIDE

NOW ITS LOST AND GONE

A SUN THAT NEVER SHONE

BURIED IN THE PAST

AND ONLY TRACES OF IT SURVIVE

WONDER KEEPS IT ALIVE

 

NEVER SHALL I KNOW

 

 

FADED LIKE GLASS TO SAND

 

NEVER WENT QUITE AS PLANNED

 

FADED, WASN'T MEANT TO SHINE

 

JADED RIGHT FROM THE START

 

LIKE AN ARROW THROUGH MY HEART

 

FADED
