ALL MY LIFE

Author: Raven

It was not so long ago 
when I thought I'd never meet someone like you. 
Wrong was I, thinking I'm in control 
Believing I'd never fall. 

All my life I thought no one would 
melt a heart like mine, a heart so cold, 
a heart hardened by the past, 
protected by shields so vast. 

Slowly I was falling 
without even knowing. 
Only to find out too late 
I have no choice but to accept my fate. 

I could dream, I suppose 
forever, I could hope 
there will never be any 'us', that's our destiny 
so I wake up to reality. 

I lied when I said 
I didn't love you, 
that my feelings for you 
are through. 

I lied 
not because I wanted to 
but because I love you 
and I still do. 

I wouldn't do a thing to hurt you 
but I just have to let go. 
I can't hold on much longer 
'coz for us there's no forever.
