When I loved, and I cared, and I gave you affection
Your feet walked away in another direction
I waited for months just to feel this connection
But now that you're gone it's a failed perfection
You have all my letters locked inside your drawer
But you can't open them 'cause our romance is torn
And inside those pages are my honest words
And sentences that I still wish that you heard
But when I dream of you each night
I see us in a perfect life
When I wake up, the story ends
And reality starts again
Now when I climb out of my sheets
I check if there's someone with me
'Cause that's how it's supposed to be
Now when I see you, it's never the same
I can't talk to you 'cause we've gone our own ways
You walk by me now without taking a glance
And I loosen my grip on the hope of a final chance
Eleven minutes into that final hour
I wish for a chance to give us all the power
To fix our relationship as it declines
And bring back the memories and the good times
