"I'm happy for you," I smile
As I look him in the eye...
But when I turn around
The tears stream down
For I know it's just a lie...

Tell me, please... Just look into my tear-filled eyes and answer the one simple question that has been gnawing at my heart since the day you left...

What happened to forever?

Inside me, there's a song
Yet I cannot find the words
It's the story of my heart...
The saddest song you've ever heard

Tighten the rope you placed around my neck
Push me aside..... make me forget
Demolish what's left of the heart you broke...
Laugh to yourself as you watch me choke

You cushion every single word
With pity in your eyes
You wait for me to break right down
I smile to your surprise

Then we both laugh with relief
"We're better as friends!" I say
And as the tears start rolling down
I turn and walk away
