At first I thought “That’s it, you’re the oneâ€
You were my first, my soul mate
I’d do anything for you
I’m done
Now that seems so far away
Things have changed, you have a case
No more I love you’s
You’re going astray
I offered you the world
But it wasn’t enough
You were more into the fast life
Money, cars, clothes, drugs
I had so many aspirations
Plans included us two
I would never leave you behind
I egged you on
“Get a job, buy a car
Baby, go to schoolâ€
I made a world for us to live in
A world for just you and me
No worries, no cares
Things were not what they seemed
Lies came to light, secrets were revealed
Everything in the past was no longer concealed
One after the other, my dreams were diminished
You get locked up, you lose my trust
How can we ever get through this
I held you up on a pedestal
In my heart you were the best
But no matter how much I loved you
You let me down like all the rest
You ain’t ever gonna find someone
To love you and hold you down like I did
And I know you hate to admit it
But you lost a good thing
You were my inspiration for everything
I did things to make you proud
I just can’t believe things have come down to this
Although I kept your feet on the ground
Your head out the clouds
I still feel I let you down
Cuz I was no longer around
Now Ima be there all the way
Cuz I know that’s what you need
Cuz your fam has turned their backs on you
Don’t show support
You don’t need them, you got me
I know it’s hard to believe
but I can honestly say I don’t regret a thing
Cuz it’s taught me lessons in life
That I would have no other way seen
I know I’ve said I don’t love you
But you and I both know that’s not true
You hold a very special place in my heart
In fact, you’re number two
Number one belongs to a person
That I met four years ago
He stole my heart, made me smile
Yet, someone I no longer know
The person I knew only made me laugh
He never made me cry
Yet the person I know now
Knows my tears and my smile he doesn’t recognize
The person I knew then
Was the man of my dreams, the father of my kids
The person I would love no matter what he did
You used to be that person
But now you’re just a friend
And as much as it may hurt
Nothing more
Nothing less
Like I said before
I’ll be here when you need me
I owe that much to you
To be there for you
Is the least I can do
Cuz although I'm not in love
I can still say that I love you.
