Still Standing

by H. Elizabeth   Dec 29, 2010


I was still standing
When we were through
I was still standing
After I left you

Little did I know
I'd miss you so much
Little did I know
I couldn't get you back

Just because we're not together
Doesn't mean I'm glad
Just because we're not together
Doesn't mean I'm not sad

Now that you're gone
My heart's turned to dust
Now that you're gone
I realize you were a must

I had my chance
I didn't let it last
I had my chance
It ended way too fast

You were always there for me
I need you
You were always there for me
I miss you

It was all my fault we broke up
The night's no longer starry now that you're not with me
It was all my fault we broke up
I'm so sorry.

I realize I'm no longer standing...I'm falling deeper into sadness.
