By the time you realize

by Molly Elizabeth   Sep 23, 2004


Next time you look at me,
I know you'll see the mistake you made. You'll see it in my eyes...
It will hurt you to see me cry.

When you talk to me,
You'll know what you did was wrong.
You'll see I love you, through all you've done. It will hurt you to know, I can't let you go.

This time, when were together,
I'll walk far away, we'll both think the same, but we won't say a thing.

We'll stare off and look back on another day, you'll deny you still feel the same. We'll both look the other way, but you'll still feel my pain, you'll still want me.

When you touch me, I won't feel the same. When you try and hold me, I'll push you away. And we'll both look back, back on another day- when we both felt the same.

Next time my phone rings, and I answer your call, there won't be any words left to say. I won't be able to hear your voice in the same way.

By the time you realize how much you need me, I'll be too hurt to let you back in. Once you realize you want me back in your life, I won't have a life to let you in....
