Retrospective
I could have held you and kept you from falling
I could have been by your side
We had it all, but it wasn't enough
I could have swallowed my pride
There was so much I could have done
There were so many signs
I never took the time to know you
I never read tween the lines
Now that it's over and we've gone our ways
Now that the knot is untied
I still get up in the middle of my dreams
Don't know how often I've cried
There was a time I put you before
All of my plans and my schemes
Then I gave it up selling my soul
Along with all of my dreams
Now I am here, living alone
I never dreamed we would part
You gave me some of my most cherished memories
I gave you a piece of my heart.
