With you, everything was an exception.

It's been way too long
Emotions bottled up inside.
It's like I'm drowning. Deeper, deeper;
In a never ending tide.

We've had our ups and downs
Somehow it's too easy to forgive and forget.
With you everything is an exception.
Too many harsh words said, sometimes regret.

I know you're trying hard to change
It's apparent in the way you are
I'm trying so hard to let you go
In my mind with nothing but a memoir.

Oh how you had me
I wish things would remain the same
First kiss, secrets shared, childhood memories
Sometimes wondering if you traded it all for fame.
