Alone

The special someone who I once knew
Made everyone of my dreams come true
He was the one that I prayed to find
He game me peace of mind
He was my everything
My reason for living
He made all my troubles disappear
And stopped all my fears
He made my life complete
And made me smile in a heart beat

Some things seem too good to be true
Love can some times be so cruel

All good times came to an end
And I lost my best friend
I wanted to work things out
Obviously, he had doubts
I wanted to know what I did wrong
Everything is now a sad love song
I was left with unanswered questions
And no consideration

I now know that we weren't meant to be
But I had hoped he'd come back to me
I prayed that one day
He would see it my way

His memories are still in my heart
They will never part
I still think of him
When my world goes dim

Now it's time to move on
Say good-bye to what is gone
Time to wipe away the tears
Knowing the next guy will have to compare
For the first was wonderful in every way
He gave me sunshine every day

I don't want to settle for anything less than what I had
For fear of being sad
I'm going to train my heart to be one made of stone
Maybe I'll spend the rest of my life alone
Never knowing the feeling of 'being in love' again
Only remembering the pain of being heartbroken

The most important person left my life
And it cuts like a knife
I still wonder why he decided to leave
It's so hard to believe
That someone could ever replace the only one I ever loved
The one I cherished

Maybe I'll take the next guy that comes alone
And try to be strong

When I think about him being gone
I come to realize that he was the one
I realize that it's too late
No reason for my heart to celebrate
So I start to cry
And ask myself, "Why?,
What ever happened for things to go wrong?,
Why can't I be strong?,
Why did we end this beautiful thing?,
Why didn't we try to fix things?,
Why does he have to pretend to be tough?,
Did I not love him enough?,
Or maybe too much?,
Why can't we just keep in touch?"
All these questions make my head sore
These are questions I'll never have answers for

I hope to find my Special Someone one day
Someone that will be in my heart to stay
But each day it takes to find him
Is one day less I have to share my love with him
One more day I hear my heart moan
And one more day I find myself alone
