Sitting here, all alone
Waiting here, by the phone
For your call
But will you call at all?
Emptiness, is what I feel
I don't know if I can heal
From your touch
Am I asking too much?
I try
Not to cry
Every time
I hear your name
Everything's not the same
I fear
I disappear
Every time
I see your face
Why can't I erase
What we became
Thinking back, to the past
Wondering why, we didn't last
For that long
Did I not belong?
It wasn't you, it wasn't me
I don't know if I agree
With what you said
Did you love her instead?
I try
Not to cry
Every time
I hear your name
Everything's not the same
I fear
I disappear
Every time
I see your face
Why can't I erase
What we became
I can't believe all the pain you caused me
You said you loved me; it was a guarantee
But now you are running off to her
I thought that that would never occur
I wish there was some way I could deter
My feelings for you, they still stir
When I think about what we were
These last few years have been a blur
I try
Not to cry
Every time
I hear your name
Everything's not the same
I fear
I disappear
Every time
I see your face
Why can't I erase
What we became
