It's times like these that let you know...

by tabithaa   Jul 15, 2005


I still remember the words I said,
Before you walked away,
And I will remember them,
Every single day.

They were:

"I held on tight,
But you let go,
It's times like these,
That let you know.

Who you can trust,
And who is fake,
How far you'll go,
And how much you can take.

What's to lose,
And what's to gain,
If things will change,
Or stay the same.

I fought the battle,
We almost won the war,
I loved you then,
But that was before.

It's different now,
Why can't you see?
There is no hope,
For you and me.

I know it hurts,
But you'll be OK,
You'll get over it,
And forget me one day.

I have to walk away from you,
Before I start to cry,
But, If there is one thing I regret,
It's that I HAVE to say goodbye."

And then I walked away,
But tears filled up my eyes,
I know that it will hurt me,
But that is no surprise.

Because, I held on tight,
But you let go,
And it's times like these,
That let you know...
