It was hard times when I met you.

At first I couldn’t see

the beauty in your eyes.

It was dark inside of me.

 

Then one day, I woke up.

I had a different view.

Things will always change.

Things are always new.

 

I set out to change my life.

My heart, it felt so bright.

I never had so much confidence.

I felt I could set things right.

 

But when you said to go away,

I didn’t know what to do.

My heart had torn in half.

But still, I thought of you.

 

That night, I took a walk.

I was glaring at the passing trees.

I howled a mournful song,

and you sang back at me.

 

I felt that it was you.

Then, I didn’t feel so numb.

Did you understand now?

Were my worries overcome?

 

I know that I was cruel to you,

and to the one that you hold dear.

I would have never done a thing

if it wasn’t for my fear.

 

I will truthfully admit it.

I was a monster from the start.

I wish I could take it back.

I mean it with all my heart.

 

So give me one more chance.

I know we can work this out.

It can be just you and me.

That’s what my life is all about.
