i didn't want you to go
i couldn't ask you to stay
it wasn't what
i thought you wanted to hear
what you said that day
i thought that's how it had to be
so i didn't fight
the fight i couldn't win
if only i knew
what i know now
things would have
been different somehow

i would have stopped the sun from shining
stopped the rain from coming down
i would have seperated sea from shore
stopped the world from going round
i would have gladly done it differently
to show my heart was true
i would have done the impossible
if it meant i'd still have you

inside my heart i cried
but i put a smile upon my face
kept breathing,
takin one step at a time
inside i had a hope
wished someday you'd come back to me
how was i to know
you wished the same thing too
if only i knew
what i know now
things would have been
different somehow

i would have stopped the seasons changing
ceased the churning sands of time
i would have stopped the oceans ebb and flow
would have stepped across that line
i would have gladly done it differently
to show my heart was true
i would have done the impossible
if it meant i'd still have you

if i could only have one simple wish
to get a second chance
i would have closed my eyes for one more kiss
would have asked for one more dance

i would have stopped my heart from hurting
would have chased the tears away
i would have held you tighter in my arms
and i would've begged for you to stay
i would have gladly done it differently
to show my heart was true
i would have done the impossible
if it meant i'd still have you

i never meant to hurt anyone, and if i did, i'm truly sorry...

i've done some thinking... i think my heart is finally mine again... but i feel more hesitant in trying to give it away again... don't want to risk getting it given back to me on a silver platter... part of me is saying wait for someone to come and steal your heart from you first. let them give you their heart first, hopefully if they do that, they know what they want, and they think that i'm it... but it's in my nature to give... what can i say, i like to romance a girl... but that girl has to want me to romance her i guess... i guess i'll try to wait for someone to come and steal my heart... but once they do... i'll definitely try to help things along, let the natural tendencies take over...

old letters can be so... i don't know... windows into what might have been... could still be... or rather... maybe not. have you ever saved im convos that you thought might be useful to have? yeah, got a couple of those too... how quickly things seem to change, and how quickly things that seemed so sure can suddenly become contradictary. unfulfilled promises... unexplored paths... unheralded voices in a heart, victims of circumstance and convenience... you learn to hide it, and every time you have to, it gets easier and easier to hide it. i never meant to hurt you, and if i did, i hope you know that i only wanted the best for you, and i still do. i will always have the memories, and they aren't too shabby ;) and no matter what you may think, about me comparing you to others, or whatnot, it will always be your song. i'm happy for you, you know that, i guess it ended up being best for you after all. that's all i wanted.
