Then the next it’s like I’m just someone whose there
You won’t know what you had until I’m gone
We’re no longer floating on air

My feet touched the ground a long time ago
Yours touched down long before mine
I feel like a puppet putting on a show
I’m upset at myself for being so blind

I should have known it would come to an end
Why would you be any different than the others?
I gave you all of me just to end up a friend
I don’t know why I even continue to bother

I guess I should thank you for opening my eyes
And letting me see love just wasn’t meant for me
I’m happy that all of this I finally realized
Now life can go on and I can be alone pretending to be happy

Thank You for Nothing

Lasca,
I'm good for remembering quotes that stick with me. I don't know if I passed this one on to you (or anyone else here at YPDC, for that matter), but it applies here:

"You've got a good heart...give it to someone who knows how to love."

Man of your dreams may have a huge hole impossible to fill. Don't waste your magic on someone who can't be moved by it. I've learned...it's not worth the effort.
