There was you and I
We met in grade 8
I did not know then,
Youd be the one
Jokes, laughs and pranks
It was a kids game
I did not know then,
Soon in my heart, Id carve your name
The year went by fast
Time started to slip by,
But I thought it was better to wait
I did not know then,
That it would be too late
The feelings I tried to deny
Which I tried desperately to hide
I realized I could no longer push them away
I did not know then,
They were here to stay
With all my courage, I wrote it down
I hope, I prayed, once you read it you wouldnt frown
I thought Id be rejected
I did not know then,
Youd open your arms
You told me youd love me forever
Held me and said wed be together
I did not know then,
Forever would be shorter then it meant
Before we knew it the school year came to an end
But we didnt leave one another
I did not know then,
Youd change just like the changing weather
You were going to another school
Maybe far apart wed be close by heart
I did not know then,
The dent was put in and it was only the start
You asked me to keep a parcel of my heart for you
No matter what happened Id love you
I did not know then,
What youd make me go through
We didnt talk and months went by
Time simply started to fly away
I did not know then,
Over this lost time Id cry
One day I called and we talked
You said things ill never forget
I did not know then,
It was all beginning to fall apart
You considered me just like any other girl
I meant nothing more then another in your list
I did not know then,
Youd turn out to be like this
I kept the parcel
Even if it made my heart burn
And the tears run
I did not know then,
How my world will twirl and turn
I kept in mind
There must be a reason behind
I did not know then,
This goodbye held a lie
