Ich Habe Dich Geliebt

I still remember perfectly
When I swore on both our lives
That I'd refuse to bear this world
Without you by my side.

Funny how we say such things
And never follow through.
The day I said those words to you,
I really believed it was true.

Lesson learned, I suppose.
I'll not believe such words again.
Looks like the "strongest force there is"
Isn't as strong as we pretend.

I wonder if you'd be happy,
Had I kept my oath and died,
If I'd shown you you're so special
Someone loved you more than life...

Looking back, I should've known
I didn't have the heart.
To love anyone to the point
Where I'd die if we're apart.

I doubt that I'll forget you though,
After all that we went through.
It's not as devout as suicide,
But I'll always remember you. <3
