Remember When
The song on the radio plays again.
Making me remember when.
When you used to sing to me all the time.
We even went out once to dine.
I remember that night and what you ate.
You had crab legs piled upon your plate.
We held hands and gazed into eachother's eyes.
Before we knew it we were saying our goodbye's
The song speaks of the angel I thought you were.
But now you are saying you love her.
I guess the song is right as I listen.
I can't help but say you're the one I'm missing.
I know you still care, because you told me so.
But why must I be the one to know?
You promised that we would dance to this song.
But all you've done is string me alone.
You left me full of empty hopes and dreams.
I can only love you, or so it seems.
Do you ever wonder who's holding my heart now?
There's only one that I will allow.
I'm holding out for the one who can't stay true.
Sadly I have to admit it is you.
The song finally comes to an end.
Yet I still can't stop remembering when.
