I remember the day we met
There was something in the air,
Sweet and tangible and real,
I thought I saw to the depths of you,
In a single moment.
And that's all it took
For me to want to be with you,
And you gave a smile that seemed to
Say 'I want to be with you too'.
And so I did something
Strong and new,
Not me at all.
I gave you my heart
(expecting a heart in return)
And you threw it away
But I picked it up,
Cracked and broken
And carried it away to mend
(I thought I could remake it better;
Worthy of you)
When it was almost new,
I brought it back,
But you just threw it away,
Again.
But I was hopeless,
A fool,
I didn't think twice about
Staying in your trap
Because I can remember
The day we met
And the smile you gave,
The one I thought I knew.
