I loved you once before
But now that feeling's gone
I thought you were my all
I thought you were the one.
But you broke my heart
And then, you walked away
Now you are back again
Asking me if I will stay.
I almost hate to say it
But there's nothing left.
That I must leave you now
Just as I was once bereft.
A friendship I can offer
That's all I have to give
This time we must move on
We have our lives to live.
Love seems to meet you
But only once or twice
So that is why I'm offering
A simple word of advice.
If you don't hold on to it
When you get the chance
Then it can slip away
And be lost in a glance.
I was here once for you
But now, I've moved on.
My heart you held once
But now, that love is gone.
