I let you slip away

You help my hand
As we walk through memory lane
We walked thought our best times
And we walked through our worst

Even after all of this
You still managed to give me a kiss
I felt like i was on a cloud
It was the best time of my life

You told me you loved me
Thats when i froze
I looked you in the eyes
As you gave me a rose

I was always afraid of love
I saw what it did
Teared people apart
Gave them no reason to live

Broken hearts
Thats what I hear
Tears going down faces
Thats what I see

Thats what people say
People who where in love
People who lost the ones
The ones that they chose

I took the rose
The torn cut my finger open
I looked down at it
Scared and surprised

If a rose symbolizes love
Then why did it cut me open
You took my hand
Looked down at it

Its OK don't worry
Thats what you said
You help my hand
and told me not to let go

But thats not what I did
I let you slip away
Just as you let go
I tried to catch you again

I tried to take your hand
You were moving away
You started to disappear
I had to stop you

I tried to take your hand
I tried I tried
But every time I got it
You kept slipping away

I was drowning in fear
So I let you disappear
My finger still bleeding out
Bleeding love i let go

Now that I look back
I hate myself
Because loving you back
Would be the best
