Like The Tide

It was love at first glance
at least that's what I thought
I was pulled in by your words
It was my heart that you caught

You fell in love with your eyes
I fell in love with my ears
You had me head over heels
Couldn't breathe without you near

For a while you were my world
and the air that filled my lungs
but all that is now the past
there's no more memories to come

You were what my heart beat for
and all the tears that I cried
You were the key to my heart
but you came and left like the tide

I promised myself I would stay strong
To not lose myself over some boy
To not give my heart away easily
And just let it be played like a toy

So I'm putting emotions in words
because a tear, I will not shed for you
All words unsaid are now written
and all lies are unveiled to the truth

So when your heart starts to miss me
and you're wanting me back to hold
Remember to keep one thing in mind
It was you who wanted to let me go.
