baby, where did we go wrong
with a love that was so strong?
how did we end up this way
fighting and so filled with hate?
baby, how did i lose you
why did we walk away?
when you were all i needed
each and every day
sometimes i stand at my door
hoping to see you walk by
i lie on my bed at night
waiting for the phone to ring
i've tried a million times
to get the nerve to call you
but what would i say
to make you understand
i love you, baby
i didn't want to lose you
you were my first love
the only one who knew
who i was and who i am
darlin, i miss you
so bad it's tearing
my battered heart in two
darlin, i wish that
you were here tonight
i'd hold you in my arms
tell you what i feel inside
i know i'm not too good with words
but i'd do my best to try
to make you see
that baby, i love you
i miss you so bad
i wish i knew why we walked away
from the gift of love God gave us


i'm trying to understand this all. it's been 3 years and i still miss you as though it was the day after we broke up. sometimes i wake up and find myself crying and my thoughts are on you. i put pictures of you next to my bed. not the brightest thing to do, when i'm trying to get over you, but i love looking at you. i remember the night i finally admitted to myself that i was head over heels for you. it was when you sent me that poem "From Other Sides of the Moon"...remember? you told me you'd written it for me. i don't know if you really did or not, but it touched something so deep inside my heart and i couldn't fight loving you anymore. i never could fight it, not that i'd wanted to. i remember the first time we broke up. i wrote to you, begging (i'm not ashamed to admit that) you not to leave. you taught me what love is, you showed me how wonderful it can be. you showed me that it exists. and now, three years later, i can't get over it. i wonder if i should have walked away that night...or if i should have stayed. maybe if i'd stayed, we'd still be together. instead i let my anger and hurt get the best of me and i told you goodbye. you always could bring out the worst in me. and the best. i don't know if i'll ever be showing you this page, or if i'll hide it away, like i do the rest of my feelings. i don't know if you're ready to hear all of this. so for now i'll leave it alone and when we're both ready again, i'll show you the true extent of my feelings.
