i'm shaking for breath tears escaping me as i sob, i want to feel your comfort that has for so long been amiss, i want to hear you tell me that you love me just one more time, but i know that we have lost, lost what we once had between us, just can't get these images out of my head, i'm not crying for losing you, i lost you so long ago when you quit on me and us, and still i didn't give up even when you had so no i'm not crying for losing something i already had lost
i'm crying and breaking down for coming to the understanding that i have now lost any chance, any grain of hope there might have been to gain back who we once were, what we once had so long ago i remember every smile and every laugh i can't forget the hugs, embraces, and kisses the talks and the silent moments of contentment, remember swimming in the summer and just taking the time to look at the stars at night, remember the movies all year long, never forget your relentless teasing
or the silly faces you'd do to make me laugh, remember letting me hold your hand whenever i wanted and playing with you hair, don't forget that there was a time when you'd look me in the eye as if i was all you needed, so long ago, these pictures keep flashing before my eyes, the way my hand looked in yours, how you could wrap you arms all the way around me, how you'd wipe my tears away, wat they didn't understand was the soft words and the silent looks we shared in private or how we had just understood, all so long ago
im missing wat i had, im missing wat we were, and wat we'll never be again, i loved you and i love you but i wasn't strong enough for you and you couldn't give me all that i wanted, we weren't right, didn't quite fit, it was the hardest thing to tell you good-bye, to walk away from wat i knew wasn't good for me, but breathing without knowing i have you is so hard, harder than i'd realized it would be
you may forget all about me one day boy, but i won't forget my first love the first i let my guard down for and the first i let love me, time will pass and the wounds will healand our lives will move on but right now all i want to do is cry, cry for all we have lost.
Cry For All We Have Lost
