He used to be the one..

by lauren   Jul 1, 2005


Those used to be the hands,
And the arms that held me tight.
Those used to be the lips,
That kissed me through the night.

That used to be my place,
Standing by his side.
That used to be my happiness,
Now I'm feeling sick inside.

That smile that he's wearing now,
He used to wear for me.
And where her hand is inside of his,
Is where mine used to be.

That used to be the voice,
That whispered in my ear.
He used to be my life,
But he hasn't been there.

Those used to be the eyes,
That looked deep inside my soul.
He used to be the one,
That somehow made me whole.

That used to be my safety,
He used to be my guy.
And I used to own,
That sparkle in his eye.

I used to be surrounded,
By the smell of his cologne.
I used to have a place with him,
Now I stand here all alone.

Those used to be the words,
He said when we were together.
There used to be the hope,
That we'd be like that forever.

Those used to be the ears,
That heard all I had to say.
He used to be the one for me,
But then he went away.

I used to be the one he loved,
He actually used to care,
But now after all that's happened,
There's a new girl standing there.
