Not Anymore

Baby I can't believe
Just what you did to me
What happened to us
Was it all just jealousy

When we were together
It was pure magic
But then you disappeared
Was that your big trick?

I gave you my heart
My soul and my love
You took flight
Far out of sight
As quickly as a dove

Why do the ones
That I love always leave?
I let them in my heart,
And in the end I just grieve
No more
No, not anymore

This is why I build more walls
That nobody can get through
Another made each time I'm hurt
I wish that this all wasn't true

Was I just too loud
When I never made a sound?
I stand alone in every crowd
Wondering if I'll ever find
The ONE that's meant to be mine

I lay in bed every night
Alone, no one holding me tight
But this just can't be right

They all have their special
Someone by now it seems
I simply want to find "the one"
But I'm falling apart at the seams

Maybe I'm too broken to be saved
Otherwise someone would have stayed
Because all I ever end up with
is the feeling of being betrayed
But not anymore
Never again

Was it something I did?
Or was it something I said?
I just can't get you out of my head!

We were as beautiful as a song
But now you have moved on
Was this your sinister plan all along?
I guess I turned out strong
In the end....

Well that's okay
I don't need you anyway
I am done with these games
Please don't ask me to play!
Anymore....

Looking for something real
Something that I can feel
Deep inside my heart
That won't be torn apart!
Anymore
Not anymore

Wanting someone new
Someone not like you
You are in the past
And I'm not looking back
Anymore....
Oh, no. Never again

I want someone not fake
I want my true soul mate
Someone that's no mistake
Guess I'll leave it up to faith
From now on...
