You color me still.
I find life beautiful because of you,
I live because of you.
I breathe now because I loved you then,
And I will say this again and again,
But it's true.
There's no one who compares to you.
We're worlds apart now,
The months will grow to years
But I'll still think of you.
I hold you in my heart, still
Remember how you put my heart at standstill.
I could have done it better,
But I still loved you then.
I still love you now I'm sure,
I always will,
But I could have made it easier,
I want you to be happy,
And I've killed you.
I never meant to,
But it had to be this way.
Couldn't stand that I was cheating on you,
That's the only way to put it.
Deluding myself,
Blaming the distance when it was my own weakness
That set it all in motion.
And now it's over.
Now we're not on speaking terms,
We crashed and you burn.
And I'm happy now, I have to say
This might last.
It all happened so fast,
And suddenly we were no longer
Built to last.
You broke me with your words,
I couldn't say it.
Couldn't tell you how it hurt me,
Took the pain and let it warp me,
And I'm sorry.
Things are better now, I think.
Do you?
I can't ask you how you're doing,
And I have no way of knowing
If you're crumbling,
Or if you've put yourself together
And moved on.
I don't know which I'd rather,
Well -
I'd rather you were happy,
This is all I want - believe me,
Please be happy, now.
You'll make it through somehow
And you'll be better off not knowing how
I went behind your back,
No,
You're better off away from all of that.
You color me still,
And for all my life,
You always will. |
