Let Love Pass You By

With broken pieces of life

I step into tomorrow

A shadow of what I used to be

Built on trust and sorrow

I listen for your heartbeat

As it slowly starts to fade

I've never felt so empty

Or felt love so decayed

Surrounded by broken promises

The promises you didn't keep

I said, "It was all or nothing"

You said, "We're in too deep"

You gave me back the diamond ring

Then turned and walked away

I loved you with all my heart

It was something you couldn't say

I guess this sometimes happens

But I'll never understand why

You just stood there watching

And let love pass you by

This will speak to more love lost people, but there's water.
