I grew up believing
That fairy tales came true
I thought I'd have a happy ending
the day that I found you.
You strode into my life
You seemed just like a king
The heavens opened up
and the birds began to sing.
A rainbow graced the sky
and the clouds were chased away
The sun began to shine
On that glorious summer day.
I looked in your eyes
and I knew right then and there
There was no other man
who ever could compare.
You slayed all my dragons
You were there to rescue me
A princess drowning in the waves
of a dark tormented sea.
You raised your banner high
and I went running to your arms
Where I could feel the warmth of love
and be safe from the world's harm.
I gave you all my heart
But I guess you needed more
Cause I'm drowning in the sea
Just as I was before.
There are no happy endings
Because there is no you
And now I know that fairy tales
are too good to be true.
One day I will wake up
And I won't want to die
One night I will lay down
And I won't start to cry.
I will hear a song
That won't make me think of you.
I will watch a movie
And think fairy tales are true.
The sun will then start shining
The sky will then turn blue
The birds will all be singing
The day I'm over you.
So when my tears are falling
And I'm calling out your name
I'll try to think I'll be alright
Even though it's not the same.
Maybe I am trying
To make myself believe
That my whole world didn't vanish
The day you chose to leave.
It's so hard to imagine
That you are really gone
And each day is a challenge
For me to just go on.
For now I will keep trying
To get through another day
I pray you'll change your mind
And come back to me to stay.
I don't want to live
Another moment without you.
But you have walked away
Tell me, what else can I do?
What will make you love me
The way you did before?
What will send you running
Straight back to my door?
Tell me how I lost it...
To this day I still don't know.
One day you say you love me,
And the next you have to go.
We used to plan a future
But it slipped right through our hands
Tell me, what could make you leave me?
I still don't understand.
You said that we should try
to date others who are near...
And if we're still in love
The answer will be clear.
But I don't need more proof
See, I never had a doubt
I know that you're the only one
I could never live without.
You can be with her..
but that won't change my mind.
Because my love is the truest
That you will ever find.
And so I'm waiting for you
and hopefully you'll see
The grass isn't greener there
and you belong with me.
I don't want to let you go...
I still miss you every day.
You're the only one for me
And I will always feel this way.
I'm here all alone
And I wonder where you are
I wonder who you're with
And why it's gone this far.
I never thought that I
would ever see this day
You weren't supposed to leave
With I Love You's left to say.
I thought we had it all
I'd have never asked for more.
But if promises don't last,
Then what's forever for?
You used to call my name
And reach out to me to hold
But then you went away
With I Love You's still untold.
I gave myself to you
I bared my soul for you to see
What was it that you saw
That changed your love for me?
I wish you would return
I can't go on this way.
I need you in my life
I have more I Love You's left to say.
