Fool

I was a fool, this I know
to walk away, still loving you
I should have faught that day
the day you said goodbye
faught with everything I had inside
but I just drove away like a poor sad soul
with tears streaming down my face
now I'm left with only memories
sweet memories of my best friend
my lover, my soulmate, my life
what is to become of us, is there still hope
I will wait, hoping you'll reach out
maybe a birthday or other occasion
but how long can I live this life
one day soon I'll reach out to you
ask if there is a chance, if there is hope
for I need to know if you still love me
or if I need to lock my heart away
until it no longer beats for you
no longer wants for you
no longer loves you
I hope it never comes to this
for the man I will be after
will be but a fraction of my former self
it will take a lifetime to be able to love another
the way I still love you.
