This angel has lost his wings,
That's the risk that loving you brings.
I guess the pain won't ever fade away,
Not in a year and sure not today.
The times we've spent were so fine,
And I was proud to call you mine.
Now I know that it's too late for whatever,
Just know that I will remember you forever.
I knew from the start that you could hurt me,
That's the risk I was willing to take.
And since you have set me free,
I am dying like a falling snowflake.
I will never rise up from this blow,
Am I able to love again? I don't know.
You are lodged deep in my heart,
Now you have torn it apart.
And as I pick up the pieces of my shredded me,
I find the memories, they're history.
I thought our love was strong,
I thought nothing could go wrong.
Still, I have no reason to hate you,
Not after all we've been through.
But you closed the door to your heart and I can't get in,
Even if I had a key, I wouldn't know where to begin.
I doubt if you ever want me near again,
Like you did when I was still your man.
Salty tears well behind my blue eyes,
I hold them back, I don't wanna say goodbye.
