What a shame we had to part

by Jorge   Dec 16, 2005


You, You don't understand what you did
I met you 2 years ago
I met you never knowing or thinking
anything would come

Then when I met you that 1 day
when we talked in the park
when we begun

when we'd hang out
the hours we'd spend on the phone
the trips we'd take everywhere

It sparked in my mind that
maybe
just maybe
I had a thing for you
But No
Marian was in the way
Wuilmer was in the way
so we moved on with our lives

As time passed
our respected eras ended
I found myself lost in your eyes
I found myself just wanting to hold you
I found myself wanting to be with you
and just you

All the time we spent
All the time we talked
I realized I was liking you more than before

I wanted to look in your eyes
and find every excuse
to do so

Then
that 1 day came
I couldn't hold it in anymore
we had coffee
we had dinner
we had endless conversation
on the drive back
my mind was running down
like the mightiest river
I wanted to tell you so badly
how I was falling
but I feared
I feared
your reaction

However, I could not hold it in
I had to tell you how I felt
so with butterflies in my stomach
and my head running 100 miles an hour
I told you
I told you how I felt

How the girl I never thought much of 2 years previous
had become the apple in my eye
how that girl had become my hearts sole desire
how you became all I wanted
I swear
I never saw it coming
I swear
I never thought I'd see the day

but there I stood
wishing, hoping, wondering we could work things out
hoping we wouldn't turn out
as it always does
no longer being a part of each others lives

So i tried
I tried to be mature
I tried to follow your lead

but it wouldn't do
I thought about you constantly
I looked at my phone like no other

I reminisced and wondered
when you'd call
I wondered if we were over

I wondered if all our times
were now distant memories

if all we shared was for not
if our Valencia trips
our concerts
our late night talks
our star gazing
our coffee side chats
were for nothing
NOTHING

they meant nothing to you
if you were just a summer fling
if i was a bleep in your radar
if you were willing to lose everything
cuz my heart desired

Then when I saw you that 1 day
you know when
my jaw dropped
my heart stopped
my world skipped a beat
I gained eyes only for you
I was mesmerized in what I saw
you were stunning
SIMPLY STUNNING!

I tried my best yo hide
my inner most desire
my desire to see just you
to be by your side
to have any kind of time with you

but once again
you refused
I was given the cold shoulder
it wasn't easy
it was hard
I desired you so
but you ignored me so

yet again
I waited
I apologized
I asked if we were cool
you replied with a yes

however
those words became dry
you still acted like before
my part in your life had faded
we were done
what a shame we had to part

you came in as shockingly as you left
Maybe you feared me liking you would ruin our friendship
maybe you feared our friendship would take a turn for the worst
if we kept hanging out and talking like we always did?

but oh,
how it went the other way
how instead, we faded
we grew dark
we grew distant
we no longer held a part in each others lives

all we once had was gone
Oh Crystal, if only you'd see
what a shame it would be for us to part
what a shame
oh, what a shame
