Have I lost it all already?
Was it just a waste?
Once I starved from lack of love,
At least I got a taste.

Promises made and passed away,
Hopes and dreams deceased.
The taste still lingers in me now
From love's indulgent feast.

I had it all and didn't know
How fragile it all was.
Such a fool. Oh, such a fool,
And I never knew I was.

But I feel that I can handle it,
I've starved myself before.
The dog is waiting patiently
For scraps to hit the floor.

Scraps of love from others' joy,
The joy that I once faced,
The joy I held so dear to me
At least I got a taste.

I made no difference in her life,
Bur she made one in mine.
I've finally found what kind of love
That one like me can find.

One day I won't be so sore
For love so bittersweet.
I only hope again I find
One so utterly complete.

But for now I'll revel in my pain
For she'll never be replaced.
It'll never be the same again.
At least I got a taste.
