Little Pandora

I remember a day
it was so long ago
up until that very second
I had never known
how a heart could love
nor how easily it could break

and now I wish so badly
it was my heart he didn't take
all I ever wanted was to feel love
and live the stories of hearts that race
I had to be the Pandora
the one to open that box
and let loose the sorrows
that tear at my heart

it was a day
a day so long ago
he softly told me he loved me
and I let those tender feelings grow
and now that I know
we were never meant to be
I regret being that Pandora
but now I finally see:

that life isn't full of happiness
it's filled with heartbreak and pain
and it's only when you finally endure it
that you finally see a gain

you take it for what it is
and cherish the better moments
while remembering it's over
and never wallow in regrets

all hearts can love again
even when it seems impossible
and remember that when it ends
you'll find it once more,

because love is unstoppable
