when love is new there's nothing better,
chocolate and roses and an hand written letter.
kisses in the night and cuddles in the day,
no effort needed to make them stay.
but this is not a fairytale and soon you will feel,
the harsh sting of heartbreak that it is very real,
late nights crying and wishes for hope,
desperate for some way you'll be able to cope.
love is love and pain is pain,
there can't be a rainbow without a little rain,
but through all of the darkness, I'm sure you will see
the permanent scars you have left on me.
