Just go and leave me alone.
I've been here many times before.
Rejected, empty and lost.
I'll be fine.

My heart is hollow and empty
Longing for his comforting arms;
His words of undying love.
I'll be okay.

Maybe by Tuesday or Wednesday,
Perhaps by July or August,
The knife in my soul will be gone.
I think I'll be get right.

Just hold me tighter,
Tell me I'm better off now,
Let me cry til your shoulder is wet;
I'll be fine, really.

Have all of these years and all of my time
Been worthless and wasted?
Was my obsession the undoing of what we shared?
I'll get through, I hope.

The storm will pass and the clouds will clear,
If I'm lucky and sleep a lot.
God, I miss him, but really,
I'll be fine.

    Does a broken heart ever really mend
    Or do you patch it up for a short time?
    Do you ever really regain your trust

    You didn't love me then.
    You'll never love me now.
    Not even when I was there,
    Today, another face in the crowd.

    The one you

    I SAW

    I saw it coming.
    The way they looked at each other.
    Or more to the point,
    the way she looked at him,
    the way she never
