The True Meaning Of Love

Everything changed, a year ago from today.
I knew it was all real, and I couldn't push it away.
I knew what was happening, but I didn't make it stop.
Everyone else was beneath me, and I was on top.

The day you asked me out, it built up my ego.
I was still afraid to fall, but you told me to let go.
I did what you said, and enjoyed your praising.
Every time you touched me, my heart was racing.

A month later, our relationship crumbled.
When you left me, my confidence stumbled.
You encouraged me, and said you still wouldn't leave.
I hoped you was right, I didn't know what else to believe.

Eventually you moved, without saying goodbye.
I was so depressed, all I would do is cry.
I wanted to go with you, but you turned me down.
I wanted to run away, and just leave town.

Today everything is different, I know now more than ever.
Sometimes love, doesn't always last forever.
Love can't be promised, just in things said.
If you are lucky, it'll last until you're dead.

The feelings aren't always there, it comes and goes.
But when two people truly love each other, everyone knows.
When people leave and come back, you see if the love is still there.
Even if you don't feel love, you can see it everywhere.
