If I didn't love him, what the Hell was it?

Fuck, I came thisclose to slitting my wrists in the shower last night. I knew it was a stupid idea all around, told myself so even as I held the razor. I had to thought-stop about 10 times & then I just wept like a baby standing there w/ the hot water running. But I've apparently just wasted nearly 6 years of my life. So I mean, why not?

Wasted Time - Eagles
Well baby, there you stand
With your little head down in your hand
Oh My God, you can't believe it's happening again
Your baby's gone, & you're all alone
And it looks like the end
You're back out on the street
And you're tryin' to remember
How you'll start it over
You don't know what became
You don't care much for a stranger's touch
But you can't hold your man
You never thought you'd be alone this far down the line
And I know what's been on your mind
You're afraid it's all been wasted time
The autumn leaves have got you thinking
About the first time that you fell
You didn't love the boy too much,
No, you just loved the boy to well
So you live from day to day
And you dream about tomorrow
And the hours go by like minutes
And the shadows come to stay
So you take a little something to make them go away
And I could have done so many things, baby
If I could only stop my mind
From wondrin' what I left behind
And from worrying 'bout this wasted time
Another love has come & gone
And the years keep rushing on
I remember what you told me before you went out on your own:
"Sometimes to keep it together, we got to leave it alone."
So you can get on with your search
And I can get on with mine
And maybe someday we will find,
That it wasn't really wasted time

I Would’ve Loved You Anyway
If I’d've known the way that this would end
If I’d've read the last page first
If I’d've had the strength to walk away
If I’d've known how this would hurt
I would’ve loved you anyway
I’d do it all the same
Not a second I would change
Not a touch that I would trade
Had I known my heart would break
I’d've loved you anyway
It’s bittersweet to look back now
At memories withered on the vine
But just to hold you close to me
For a moment in time
I would’ve loved you anyway
I’d do it all the same
Not a second I would change
Not a touch that I would trade
Had I known my heart would break
I’d've loved you anyway
And even if I’d seen it coming
You’d still’ve seen me running
Straight into your arms
I would’ve loved you anyway
I’d do it all the same
Not a second I would change
Not a touch that I would trade
Had I known my heart would break
I would’ve loved you anyway

I Can't Tell You Why - Eagles
Look at us baby, up all night
Tearing our love apart
Aren't we the same two people who live
Through years in the dark?
Every time I try to walk away
Something makes me turn around & stay
And I can't tell you why
When we get crazy,
It just ain't to right,
(try to keep you head, little girl)
Girl I get lonely too
You don't have to worry
Just hold on tight
(don't get caught in your little world)
'Cause I love you
Nothing's wrong as far as I can see
We make it harder than it has to be
And I can't tell you why
No, Baby I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
No, Baby I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why / I can't tell you why

Against All Odds - Phil Collins
How can I just let you walk away
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you
You're the only one who really knew me at all
How can you just walk away from me
When all I can do is watch you leave
Cos we've shared the laughter & the pain
We've even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now / There's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me,
Just the memory of your face
Take a look at me now / There's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against the odds
And that's what I've got to face
I wish I could just make you turn around,
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you / So many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now / There's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Now take a look at me now / Cos there's just an empty space
But to wait for you, is all I can do
And that's what I've got to face
Take a good look at me now / Cos I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
It's the chance I've gotta take / Take a look at me now

The Girl From Yesterday - Eagles
It wasn't really sad the way they said goodbye
Or maybe it just hurt so bad she couldn't cry
He packed his things, walked out the door & drove away
And she became the girl from yesterday
He took a plane across the sea / To some foreign land
She stayed at home & tried so hard to understand
How someone who had been so close / Could be so far away
And she became the girl from yesterday
She doesn't know what's right / She doesn't know what's wrong
She only knows the pain that comes from waiting for so long
And she doesn't count the teardrops
That she's cried while he's away
Because she knows deep in her heart
That he'll be back someday
The light's on in the window; she's waiting by the phone
Talking to a memory that's never coming home
She dreams of his returning & the things that he might say
But she'll always be the girl from yesterday
Yeh, she'll always be the girl from yesterday

Someday We'll Know - New Radicals
90 miles outside Chicago
Can’t stop driving / I don’t know why
So many questions / I need an answer
Two years later / You’re still on my mind
Whatever happened to Emilia Earhart?
Who holds the stars up in the sky?
Is true love once in a lifetime?
Did the captain of the titanic cry?
Someday we’ll know / If love can move a mountain
Someday we’ll know / Why the sky is blue
Someday we’ll know / Why I wasn’t meant for you
Does anybody know the way to Atlantis?
Or what the wind says when she cries?
I’m speeding by the place where I met you
For the 97th time tonight
Someday we’ll know / If love can move a mountain
Someday we’ll know / Why the sky is blue
Someday we’ll know / Why I wasn’t meant for you
Someday we’ll know / Why Samson loved Delilah
One day I’ll go / Dancing on the moon
Someday you’ll know / That I was the one for you
I bought a ticket to the end of the rainbow
I watched the stars crash in the sea
If I could ask God just one question-
Why aren’t you here with me tonight?
Someday we’ll know / If love can move a mountain
Someday we’ll know / Why the sky is blue
Someday we’ll know / Why I wasn’t meant for you
Someday we’ll know / Why Samson loved Delilah One day I’ll go / Dancing on the moon
Someday you’ll know / That I was the one for you

If You're Not The One - Daniel Bedingfield
If you’re not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you’re not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call?
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all?
I never know what the future brings
But I know you are here with me now
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
If I don’t need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don’t need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you’re not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you’re not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?
I don’t know why you’re so far away
But I know that this much is true
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I pray in you’re the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life
I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
Cos I miss you, body & soul, so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart & pray for the strength to stand today
Cos I love you, whether it’s wrong or right
And though I can’t be with you tonight
I know my heart is by your side
I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
