Beautiful Heartbreak


I saw a picture of you today,

I never thought that I could feel this way.

I gave you everything I had,

But in the end it all went bad.

 

You make me feel so weak,

I can barely find a reason to stand on my feet.

You were everything I wanted,

Now that everything just keeps me haunted.

 

I still love you like never before,

All I want to do is hold you close once more.

You used to be my everything,

Now you are the reason that I shake.

You once were my love,

Now you're my heartbreak.

 

From this dream I'll never wake,

The reason I shake, my beautiful heartbreak.

 

We always talked about our lives together,

How it would be just the two of us forever.

It was going to be you and I until the end of time,

Now I just want to lay the past down and let it die.

 

I still love you like never before,

All I want to do is hold you close once more.

You used to be my everything,

Now you are the reason that I shake.

You once were my love,

Now you're my heartbreak.

 

From this dream I'll never wake,

The reason I shake, my beautiful heartbreak.

 

I knew of everything you did, everywhere you'd been,

I never wanted that for you.

The things that you said now left for dead,

But my love is still true,

I couldn't let you go, it brought me so low.

It didn't matter to me,

I just wanted us to be.

 

I still love you like never before,

All I want to do is hold you close once more.

You used to be my everything,

Now you are the reason that I shake.

You once were my love,

Now you're my heartbreak.

 

From this dream I'll never wake,

The reason I shake, my beautiful heartbreak.
