I thought I could keep you for my own,
So scared of ending up alone.
I let myself fall way too fast,
Should have known it wouldn't last.
I tried to force you to feel what I feel,
Too bad the love was never real.
I tried to steal your wounded heart,
Wasn't mine from the start.
I could have forced you to stay with me,
Stuck in a life of misery.
I could have kept you for myself,
Hid you high upon a shelf.
And yet, I let you go,
For reasons, I still don't know.
I hope you're happy wherever life takes you,
Maybe you'll wish the same for me too.
And maybe when you think back once in a while,
You'll think of me, of us, and smile.
