Loved and Lost

I fought with love,
and I called her bluff,
but soon I was facing my biggest fear,
cause I walked away,
when I should have stayed,
looked back, but she disappeared.

Screaming out what did I do.

When old memories make it harder to breath,
cause you know, just what you've lost,
and you can't fall asleep cause she's there in your dreams,
but you can't get away from your thoughts,
when she's on repeat in your head,
wishing you could take back things you said,
you've loved and lost,

She comes on by
with a guy by her side
so you say that you're happy for her
but those eyes that you've missed
are directed at his
you try not to show that you're hurt
but sometimes love just gets away

I'll turn around and leave gracefully,
but I'll never stop wishing you'd come back to me.
