There was a time when I could smile,
there was a time filled with joy,
but it's been quite a while,
since I was that boy,
now I'm just a sad man,
tears run down my face,
you took my heart and you ran,
now I'm just a disgrace,
I woke up in the darkness,
you weren't by my side,
you said that love was harmless,
but I guess you lied,
I came to in the darkness,
without you by my side,
you swore that this love was harmless,
but my dear you lied,
You said you'd never leave me,
you said you'd always stay,
but now this loneliness grieves me,
every second I'm awake,
so I tried sleeping,
but then I would dream,
and along you came creeping,
there's no escape it would seem,
I woke up in the darkness,
you weren't by my side,
you said that love was harmless,
but I guess you lied,
I came to in the darkness,
without you by my side,
you swore that this love was harmless,
but my dear you lied,
I don't understand,
how you could do this to me,
the way you held my hand,
and said you had to be free,
I never locked you up,
or put you in a cage,
I guess it wasn't enough,
you had to run away,
I woke up in the darkness,
you weren't by my side,
you said that love was harmless,
but it seems that you lied,
I came to in the darkness,
without you by my side,
you swore that this love was harmless,
but b**** you lied,
I woke up in the darkness,
I was all alone,
you said that love was harmless,
then you hung up the phone,
I came to in the darkness,
I was all by myself,
you swore that this love was harmless,
then you put me through hell,
I woke up in the darkness,
you weren't by my side...
