I'm not the kind of person
to wallow in self-pity
but when I first set eyes on you
I started to feel giddy.
I knew that the only thing
could ever come to pass
would be that my nice sweet heart
could never stand a chance.
You were the kind of person
who basks in people's adoration
I was the one off to the side
smiling at all of god's creations.
I used to laugh all the day long
and smile at my cherished friends.
Now I have delved into my mind
thinking I have reached my heart's end.
As I silently cast my eyes toward yours
I see a small glimmer of hope
I wonder if it's my imagination or not
but its' the only thing that's beginning to help me cope
Now I finally know what it means
to "Taste the salt of tears"
That's why I don't want to see you
Because you awaken all my fears.
